Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups blueberries, frozen and thawed (for fresh blueberries, see notes below)
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons arrowroot powder
Preparation
Step 1
Puree the thawed blueberries in a food processor or bender. *If you are using fresh blueberries please see notes below.
Whisk the water, lemon juice and arrowroot powder in a medium saucepan then add the blueberry puree
Bring mixture to a boil slowly over medium heat, stirring frequently then simmer it until it thickens, approximately 25 minutes. You will know when it is done when you draw a rubber spatula through the center and it creates a hole that will stay open for a few seconds and then fill back in. Once this happens remove from the heat.
Return mixture to the blender and process for a few seconds or use a hand blender if you have one directly in the saucepan.
Let it cool before you store it. As it cools it will continue to thicken. If you need to change the consistency once it cools in case you make it too thick you can easily do so by adding a little water to the mixture
