Blueberry Maple Syrup

Blueberry Maple Syrup

2c fresh or frozen blueberries (unsweetened)
1 tblsp pure maple
1 tblsp orange juice

In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, maple syrup & orange juice.  Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.  Reduce the heat to medium low & simmer, stirring occasionally for 2 minutes.  Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth.  Add more maple syrup to taste depending on the sweetness of the fruit.  I usually make the sauce 4 days ahead of time and store it in the fridge in an airtight container.

This sauce is wonderful with pancakes, waffles, ice cream, frozen yogurt or even as a mix-in for greek yogurt or parfaits.
