Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh blueberries
- 0.25 cups Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Wash the blueberries thoroughly and remove any stems or leaves.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, and water.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Once the mixture starts bubbling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-12 minutes. Stir frequently and use a wooden spoon or fork to gently mash the blueberries as they soften.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes.
Step 6
Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, puree the mixture until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier spread, you can skip this step or blend only partially.
Step 7
Transfer the spread to a clean, airtight jar or container. Allow it to cool completely before sealing and storing it in the refrigerator.
Step 8
The Honey Blueberry Spread can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy it as a topping for toast, pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, or even as a filling for pastries!
