Easy Cherry Sauce

• porções: 8 servings
• tempo total: 15 minutes

Ingredientes

4 cups sweet cherries (fresh or frozen), pitted* )

1/4 to 1/3 cup water

1 Tbsp cornstarch

1 Tbsp lemon juice

2 Tbsp sugar

Instruções

In a medium saucepan (off the heat), add water (use 1/3 cup for fresh cherries and 1/4 cup water for frozen cherries). Whisk in 1 Tbsp cornstarch, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, and 2 Tbsp sugar.

Place over medium heat and whisk constantly until the mixture starts to thicken.

Add cherries and cook stirring occasionally until sauce is at a light boil (about 6-10 minutes for fresh cherries and 12-15 minutes for frozen). The sauce should be thickened and uniformly bubbling, not just at the edges, then remove from heat.

Cool to room temperature then cover and store in the refrigerator in a glass mason jar or Tupperware container until ready to use. It will thicken more as it stands.

Notas

This can be used as a topping for cheesecake or pancakes.
