Blueberry Syrup
4 cups Blueberries
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 cup water
1-1/4 cups sugar
In a 3 qt saucepan, cook berries, water, and lemon juice on high heat to boiling. Boil for 2 minutes, mashing berries with a large spoon**. Add the sugar and cook over high heat to rolling boil for 30 seconds. Cool. Will keep in refrigerator up to 2 months. Makes 3 1/2 cups of syrup.
We love this on waffles, pancakes, french toast with some whipped topping or just take a spoon and enjoy before anyone wakes up.
**I have found that if I don't want a really lumpy syrup, I put mine in the food processor or blender for a few seconds. If the syrup mixture is really hot, you need to let it cool before putting it in the blender or the heat may build up and you'll have a mess.
