I love when blueberries go on sale! I buy a ton of little cartons and freeze them. Here is my favorite blueberry recipe. So quick and easy, you don't have to make it ahead of time. Just put it together while you are cooking your pancakes! It would be delicious on pound cake as well.
We had breakfast for dinner tonight as requested by Aaron 🙂
Quick Warm Blueberry Pancake Sauce
from Family Fun
2 ½ cups fresh or individually frozen blueberries (not in juice)
⅓ cup sugar
½ cup orange juice (apple juice works great too)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons lemon juice
⅓ cup sugar
½ cup orange juice (apple juice works great too)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Combine the blueberries, sugar, and ¼ cup of the orange juice in a medium-size saucepan. Warm the mixture over moderate heat, stirring it occasionally.
While the berries heat, blend the cornstarch into the remaining orange juice, using the back of a spoon to dissolve any lumps.
While the berries heat, blend the cornstarch into the remaining orange juice, using the back of a spoon to dissolve any lumps.
Increase the heat under the pan and bring the sauce to a boil. Stir the cornstarch mixture again and then stir it into the fruit. Cook the sauce at a low boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Cool the sauce for 5 to 10 minutes before serving (it will thicken as it cools). Makes about 2 cups.

I made something like that just this morning for our waffles. 😀 Only I did just 2c frozen strawberries, 3/4c sugar, and a cup of water, simmered for a bit til the strawbs defrosted, and then mashed them and cooked a couple min more. Was SO YUMMY!!! 😀
