- 3 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup water
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
In a medium pan stir together the 3 cups fresh or frozen blueberries, ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup water, and 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Cook the mixture at a low simmer for about 5 minutes, continuing to stir often, until it has thickened.
Use the back of your spoon to smush some of the berries (do this carefully—don't get splashed) to help thicken the sauce.
Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Allow the sauce to cool for 5 minutes.
Serve the sauce while it's still warm, or let it cool to room temperature. You can also serve it chilled.
When the blueberry sauce has cooled, transfer it to a mason jar or other container, and cover. Store the sauce in the fridge for up to two weeks.
