In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries and water. Place the pan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Once the blueberries begin to soften (about 5 minutes), use a fork or a masher to smash some of the berries to release their juices while leaving some whole for texture.
Stir in the powdered erythritol and lemon juice, ensuring it dissolves completely into the mixture.
Let the syrup simmer for another 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
To thicken the syrup further, sprinkle xanthan gum over the surface of the hot mixture and whisk vigorously to combine. Allow the mixture to sit for 1–2 minutes as it thickens.
Taste the syrup and adjust sweetness, if desired, by adding more erythritol.
Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or desserts. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before serving.
