Blueberry Syrup
Read my review of this recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons water, if using fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- Pinch of ground cloves
Directions:
In a saucepan, combine the blueberries, water, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, molasses, and the cloves. Bring to a boil over medium-high each, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and summer until the berries burst and the juices are slightly thickened, about 5 minutes, or longer if using frozen blueberries.
Makes about 1 cup.

Substitutions:
I used frozen wild blueberries and omitted the cloves.
This syrup is great with Sweet Potato Waffles.
