This homemade Blueberry Sauce is the perfect topping for sweet treats and so much more!

Perfect Blueberry Sauce in a White Bowl

I have to be honest here.  Blueberries are not my favorite fruit to eat raw.  My son could eat an entire container by himself, but I tend to gravitate more towards strawberries and raspberries in that case.  However, when it comes to recipes using cooked fruit, you can just pass me everything blueberry!  I make addicting Vanilla Cream Blueberry Oat Muffins and this easy Blueberry Sauce I am going to share with you here is amazing on so many different things!

PERFECT BLUEBERRY SAUCE

This sauce comes together easily and quickly when needed.  I’ve also made it ahead of time, kept it in the fridge, and then reheated it when I was ready to use it.  And…I wouldn’t judge you if you decided to eat it straight out of the pan – it’s so good!

Prep!

A Spoonful of Blueberry Sauce

I most recently used this sauce as the topping on a Red, White, and Blue Mixed Berry Puff Pastry Napoleon (a patriotic inspired dessert, yes, but delicious any time of year!).  Other ways you could use this sauce would be to swirl it in oatmeal, as an ice cream sundae topping, or mixed into yogurt!  You could also try it on top of a cheesecake, spread onto waffles, or as a delicious topping on a stack of warm pancakes, of course!  From breakfast to dessert, the possibilities are truly endless!

I’d love to hear how you plan to use this homemade Blueberry Sauce (I’m sure I’ve missed quite a few great ideas!).  Leave me a comment or send me a message any time and let me know!

Enjoy!

  2. This looks amazing! I’ve never made homemade sauce before, but I’m always curious how to make it. I’ve never thought to add lemon juice.

  8. This looks so good! I have some blueberries to use up, that is if my son doesn’t eat them all first (yup, my son does it too!). I’m thinking over ice cream tonight 😉

  19. Yum, yum! I love this sweet recipe for blueberry sauce. I’d love to try it over oatmeal in the morning or lightly drizzled on top of freshly-baked scones. There are so many wonderful ways to enjoy it! Thank you so much for this sprinkle of inspiration. 🙂
