Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine chopped strawberries, sugar, water, lemon juice, and cornstarch/water slurry. Stir and bring to a simmer. Keep at a simmer (adjusting temperature as necessary), stirring often until thick and syrupy, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat, pour over pancakes, waffles, or ice cream, and enjoy!

Notes

  • *Whisking the cornstarch and water together will prevent cornstarch lumps from forming in your sauce. Don't skip this step!
  • To halve or double the recipe, simply subtract (for halving) or add (for doubling) a minute or two the simmering time.
  • Approximate nutritional information is based on 4 servings.
