Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 2/3 cup water (minus 2 tbsp to mix with cornstarch)
  • 5 tbsp honey (can substitute maple syrup)
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed

Instructions
 

  • Place blueberries and water (minus 2 tablespoons of water) in a large saucepan.  Stir in honey and bring mixture to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium and cook until the blueberries are beginning to burst open.
  • In the meantime, place 2 tablespoons of water and the cornstarch in a small bowl and stir until totally combined.
  • When blueberries are cooked add the cornstarch mixture and simmer on medium heat until syrup thickens.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice.
  • If you want to thin the syrup add a tablespoon at a time of water. I like the syrup to be chunky with whole blueberries but if you want to smooth it out you can mash the blueberries with a potatoe masher or use an immersion blender.
