- 2 cups blackberries
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sugar, water, and cornstarch. Whisk until combined, then add the blackberries and lemon juice.
Over medium high heat, bring to a boil, then mash and stir while boiling for 2 minutes, or until the berries are soft and plump.
Remove from the heat, add the vanilla extract and stir.
Allow the berry syrup to cool slightly before serving with pancakes, waffles, French toast, ice cream, and more. Enjoy!
Storing instructions: store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or the freezer for up to 3 months. To thaw, transfer to the refrigerator overnight.
If you don't like seeds in your syrup, strain it through cheesecloth or a fine mesh sieve once cooked.
