Blueberry Syrup

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of blueberries or fruit of your choice
  • 1 cup sugar
  • bowl
  • sieve
  • spatula
  • 3 quart freezer bags
  • 1 cup measuring cup

Instructions

  • Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly so you don't burn the sugar. After the boil let it simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Let the mixture cool to the point of not burning yourself when you work with it. Place the sieve over the bowl and pour the mixture into the sieve. Using a spatula mash the mixture until no more juice comes out. Be sure to scrape the underside of the sieve. A lot of juice will collect there.
  • Pour 2/3 cup of syrup into 2 bags. Label them. Lay flat in the freezer.
  • Put the blueberry syrup discard into the third bag to freeze. This can be used in quick bread, added to pancake batter, homemade ice cream or smoothies.
