- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon cold water
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, water, and lemon juice.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the tablespoon of cold water, stirring until dissolved and smooth.
Once the blueberry mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and slowly stir in the cornstarch mixture.
Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving warm over pancakes, waffles, yogurt, or desserts.
