Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)

Directions

  1. Step 1: In a small saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice.
  2. Step 2: Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down and release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Optional: If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water in a small bowl, then add it to the saucepan. Stir well and continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  4. Step 4: Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool for a few minutes.
  5. Step 5: Using a blender or immersion blender, blend the sauce until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier sauce, you can skip this step.
  6. Step 6: Transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate until chilled. The sauce will thicken slightly as it cools.
  7. Step 7: Serve the fresh raspberry sauce over pancakes, waffles, ice cream, yogurt, or any other dessert of your choice. Enjoy!
