Ingredients
1cup berries of choice
3tbsp water
2tsp maple syrup
1tsp vanilla extract
2tsp lemon juice
1dash salt
Instructions
Bring the berries, maple syrup and water to a boil over medium heat, uncovered.
Reduce to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook for 8-10 more minutes, or until the blueberries start to burst. If the blueberries start to stick to the pan, add another tablespoon of water. Towards the end of the cooking time, you can lightly mash the berries with a fork to speed up the process.
Add in your vanilla, lemon juice and salt, and adjust seasonings to taste.
