This is a great recipe. One can also change ingredient quantities to make a thicker blueberry glaze. I personally also add a touch of black pepper to my blueberry recipes to add subtle depth to the flavor.
Can you freeze this sauce after making to have for a month or so later?
I used tapioca starch as an alternative to corn starch due to allergies and it turned out great
Perfect and so easy to make. I originally made this as a cheesecake topping, but have ended up using it on so many other things like pancakes, French toast, waffles, angel food cake, etc. Definitely a keeper!
That sounds delicious. I can’t wait to try it for me and my husband. We both love blueberry pancakes.
Loved it and so easy!
