Blueberry Sauce
We had friends over for dinner recently, and I decided to make it fun for the kids by serving waffles for dinner. Since I had some fresh blueberries in the refrigerator, I made this easy blueberry sauce recipe to top our waffles. The sauce was filled with juicy blueberries and was delicious on our waffles. This homemade blueberry sauce would also be fantastic on pancakes, French toast, crepes, or ice cream.
Blueberry Sauce
Ingredients:

How to Make Blueberry Sauce
Mix the cornstarch with the water until well combined.
Pour the water mixture, blueberries, sugar, Â lemon juice, and lemon zest into a large saucepan over medium heat.

Remove from the heat and let cool.
Spoon over your waffle, pancake, French toast, crepe, or ice cream. Enjoy.

I’m so happy to see big boxes of blueberries starting to show up at the market. Just bought two cartons yesterday. This sauce sounds like a wonderful way to utilize some of them. I can think of a zillion ways to use this sauce, it sounds amazing!
This and ice cream would be amazing!
I love blueberry sauce on cheesecake!
I cam up with exactly this formula a few weeks back, and used it as filling for coffee cake. It was wonderful.
Oh my goodness. I love making pancakes, but I am always so boring and top them with maple syrup. THIS WEEKEND WILL BE DIFFERENT! This is SO on my to-do list!
So happy it is blueberry season here. Love your sauce and I would definitely use it over pancakes.
My mom does a similar recipe to this one and it is simply amazing! I highly recommend it.
Simple and delish! I made similar one with cherries and other fruits too. Really tasty and easy to prepare.
Yummy!It looks mouthwatering!!!
and it’s also raspberry coulis season!
one of my personal favs is fresh raspberry coulis, just grab a spoon!
Yum! I adore sauces like these! I just made a similar one with strawberries for a cookie experiment and we have a ton leftover. I’ll have to try it on waffles today 🙂
Homemade blueberry sauce would definitely make waffles special!
Looks amazing! I love fresh blueberry sauce on pancakes!
I’m all about fruity sauces instead of maple syrup! I would be very tempted to drink this.
What a great idea! I think I’m having blueberry sauce on pancakes for dinner sometime very soon….
