Keto Blueberry Sauce
Description
This Keto Blueberry Sauce relies on fresh blueberries cooked with powdered monk fruit sweetener, lemon juice, and water over medium-low heat until the berries burst and the mixture thickens. The sauce’s tartness comes from lemon juice complementing the sweetness from monk fruit sweetener, allowing for a reduced-sugar fruit topping suitable for ketogenic diets.
The texture can be left with some berry chunks or smoothed by blending to preference. It has a rich, fruity flavor with a balance of sweet and tart that enhances breakfast foods or desserts. The sauce stores well in the refrigerator for several days in an airtight container.
The recipe suggests a typical serving size of about 1 ½ tablespoons, making it a flavorful but moderate condiment. It can also be drizzled over cheesecakes or other treats.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces blueberries fresh
- ¼ cup Monk Fruit Sweetener powdered, or allulose
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
- ¼ cup water
Instructions
- Add the blueberries, Swerve, lemon juice and water to a sauce pan and cook over medium/low heat for 8-10 minutes. The berries will start to break down and the sauce will thicken as it cooks.
- Allow to cool before serving. If you prefer a smooth sauce, you can blend it in a food processor, until you get your desired consistency. Serve over ice cream, pancakes or cheesecake. Store leftovers in an airtight jar for several days in the fridge.
Notes
- Typical serving is about 1 ½ tablespoons of sauce.
- Store leftovers in an airtight jar in the fridge for several days.
- Blend the sauce for a smooth consistency if preferred.
