• 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
• 1/2 tsp. lemon zest
• 1/2 cup Michigan maple syrup

Combine the blueberries and zest in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.

Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a clean pan, pressing all of the juice out of the blueberries with the back of a spoon.  Return to a simmer and add the maple syrup; simmer for about 10 minutes, or until thickened.  This sauce will keep for a week; refrigerated.

You can also skip the straining step if you would prefer a texture more like a fruit topping.  See my recipe Banana Pancake For One With Blueberry Maple Syrup.
