Ingredients

  • 2 cups blueberries
  • ΒΌ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

Instructions

  • Combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a sauce pan on medium-low heat.* When the sugar is melted, increase heat to medium. Stir often until the mixture starts to boil gently.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together water and cornstarch. Add mixture to saucepan, and bring to a boil again.

Notes

Blueberries: You may use fresh or frozen blueberries. If frozen, no need to thaw. Adjust the sugar depending on your taste.
Simmering time: If I'm using frozen blueberries, I like to add those to the pot first and let the heat of the pan thaw them slightly. I add the sugar after about 3 minutes.
