Course Breakfast, Dessert, Side Dish
- 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:Â If using sugar, add it during Step 1 for even sweetness.
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.
