Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and ¼ cup water. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow the blueberries to simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until they become soft and release their juices.
- In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch and the remaining ¼ cup of water until the cornstarch is fully dissolved. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the saucepan and stir well. Continue to simmer the sauce for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the sauce cool for a few minutes. The sauce will thicken further as it cools. Once the sauce has cooled, you can use it immediately or transfer it to a jar or airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can use an immersion blender or regular blender to puree the cooked blueberries before adding the cornstarch slurry. This will result in a smoother texture without blueberry chunks.
