Since I learned how to make bread at home, I’ve been interested in seeing what else I can bake or create. Baking is not my forte, which sounds ridiculous since I enjoy cooking. But I really struggle with baking. I think because, eve though there’s a recipe, sometimes it’s based on look and taste rather than follow exact instructions.

This Blueberry Lemon Sauce was a fun way to try something new and sweet. I followed this recipe from a blog called Delicious Little Bites. Try it out and let me know what you think.

This was delicious and very easy to make. It’s definitely sweet, but it wasn’t nearly as sweet as I was initially thinking. I was worried, because I don’t have a sweet tooth, but this was just the right amount. If you have a sweet tooth, I’m sure you could add more sugar or vanilla extract to boost it up!

Ingredient List:

• 1 cup blueberries
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup sugar (I used brown sugar)
• 1 tbsp cornstarch, mixed with 1 tbsp water
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Recipe Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil over medium heat
2. Reduce heat to low
3. Simmer until thickened (3-5 minutes)
4. Serve!

I stored mine in a mason jar in the fridge for about 3-4 days.
