- 1 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.5 teaspoons lemon zest (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup of the water. Place over medium heat and stir to dissolve the sugar.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the remaining 1/4 cup of water until smooth.

Once the blueberry mixture begins to simmer, stir in the cornstarch slurry. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice, optional lemon zest, and vanilla extract.
Step 5
Let the sauce cool slightly before serving. It will thicken further as it cools. Serve warm or at room temperature over your favorite breakfast items.
