Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries
- 3 tablespoons Low-sugar strawberry jam
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional for extra sweetness)
Instructions
Rinse the fresh strawberries thoroughly and remove the stems. Cut the strawberries into quarters.
In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh strawberries, low-sugar strawberry jam, water, and lemon juice.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir the mixture gently to combine the ingredients.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Simmer for about 4-5 minutes or until the fresh strawberries begin to break down and the sauce thickens slightly.
If you like your sauce smoother, use a fork or potato masher to gently mash some of the strawberries while cooking.
Taste the sauce and, if desired, add honey for extra sweetness. Stir well to incorporate.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool for a few minutes. It will thicken further as it cools.
Serve the double strawberry sauce warm or let it cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
