Servings 1 jar

Ingredients
  

  • 350 g frozen strawberries (about 2 cups) or ripe fresh strawberries
  • 2-3 tbsp maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: If using sugar, add it during Step 1 for even sweetness.

Instructions
 

  • Cook the Strawberries:
    Place the frozen (or fresh) strawberries in a medium pot over low heat. Warm them gently for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until defrosted and heated through. Avoid boiling. Test by squishing a few berries against the side of the pot—they should be soft.
  • Add Flavour:
    Stir in the maple syrup (or honey) and vanilla extract. Remove from heat.
  • Blend Until Smooth:
    Let the strawberry mixture cool slightly, then pour it into a powerful blender. Blend until silky smooth.
  • Store:
    Transfer the sauce to a jar or squeezy bottle for easy serving.
