Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pint fresh raspberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup water

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, whisk water and cornstarch together until blended.
  2. Add raspberries, sugar, and orange juice, heat at medium high until blended (crushing raspberries as you blend).
  3. Turn temperature to high and bring to boil, then simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly until thickened (note: the sauce will thicken further as it cools).
  4. Using a sieve separate the seeds and the juice, discard the seeds and store the sauce in a container or glass jar.

Notes

The raspberry sauce will last up to a week in the fridge.
If you like your sauces thicker add more cornstarch, approx. 1/2 tablespoon. Just make sure you are always blending cornstarch with a little water first, then add to your sauce.
