Ingredients
Scale
- 5 1/2 ounces (1 scant cup of frozen or fresh mixed berries) (150g)
- 2 tablespoons sugar, or more to taste (26g)
- 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, or more to taste (8g)
Instructions
- Measure the fruit + sugar + lemon juice. In a small heavy-bottomed pot, add the fruit, sugar, and lemon juice.
- Cook the sauce. Heat the mixture to a boil and cook stirring frequently for 10 minutes, or until the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Serve the sauce hot, at room temperature, or even cold, and Enjoy!
Notes
- Refrigerate or freeze leftovers and thaw in the fridge overnight before using.
- Use a single type of berry if you don’t want to use mixed berries. Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries are all great options for single berry sauces.
- If you want a seed-free smooth and silky sauce, pass the finished sauce through a fine-mesh sieve pressing on the mixture with a rubber spatula, ladle, or the back of a spoon. Discard the seeds.
