Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries
  • 1/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp cold water

Instructions

  • On the stove, place the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a medium size sauce pan.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer for 3-4 minutes. Cooking at a high temperature quickly releases the juices.
  • In small bowl combine the cornstarch and cold water.
  • Turn the heat down to medium and blend in the cornstarch slurry while stirring continually until the sauce thickens.
  • Serve as a dessert topping, or spoon over yogurt, pancakes, or waffles.
