Ingredients

  • 6 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup cornstarch
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Add blueberries to a large pot. Add the sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and salt, then toss to combine.
  • Heat and stir over medium-high heat until the berries have softened and the cornstarch thickens and turns translucent. Around 10-15 minutes.
  • Transfer to glass jars and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to at least 6 months.

Notes

  • If frozen, thaw before using. It will likely separate and be slightly watery, but if you heat it up in a pan for a few minutes, it will come back together.
