Ingredients

• 4 cups Mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)
• 0.5 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Arrowroot powder
• 2 tablespoons Water (for arrowroot slurry)
• 1 to taste Stevia or monk fruit sweetener (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the mixed berries under cold water, then drain well. If using strawberries, hull and slice them into quarters for even cooking.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the mixed berries, 0.5 cup water, and lemon juice.

Step 3

Place the saucepan on medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Allow the berries to cook for 8-10 minutes until they soften and start releasing their juices. Use a wooden spoon or potato masher to gently mash some of the berries for a thicker consistency.

Step 5

Mix the arrowroot powder with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl to create a slurry.

Step 6

Gradually pour the arrowroot slurry into the berry mixture, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.

Step 7

Continue cooking the sauce on medium-low heat for another 3-5 minutes, or until it reaches the desired thickness.

Step 8

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Taste the sauce; if you desire more sweetness, add stevia or monk fruit sweetener to your preference, stirring well to ensure it's fully dissolved.

Step 9

Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving. It can be served warm or cooled, depending on preference.

Step 10

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
