Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh blackberries
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoons Lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Gently rinse the blackberries under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Step 2
Transfer the blackberries to a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Step 3
Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the blackberries.
Step 4
Add the lemon zest and lemon juice to the bowl.
Step 5
Using a gentle folding motion, toss the blackberries until they are evenly coated with the sugar and lemon mixture.
Step 6
Let the blackberries rest for 5-10 minutes at room temperature. This will allow the sugar to dissolve and the berries to release their natural juices, creating a light syrup.
Step 7
Serve immediately as a topping for yogurt, pancakes, or desserts, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
