To make this sauce, start with the slurry. Whisk together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl. In a saucepan, combine the cornstarch slurry, raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for 3 minutes. Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Press the sauce through a fine mesh strainer to remove the seeds. Let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Serve over whatever dessert you’d like. Enjoy!
To make the Easy Raspberry Sauce, you will need the following ingredients:
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water until all the cornstarch has dissolved.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cornstarch mixture, 3 cups raspberries, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice.
Bring to a boil, stirring with a silicone spatula and lightly mashing the raspberries. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in ½ teaspoon vanilla extract.
Use a wooden spoon to press the warm raspberry sauce through a fine mesh strainer to remove the seeds.
Pour the strained sauce into a jar. Cool completely at room temperature. The sauce will thicken slightly as it cools, but it will still be liquid and perfect for drizzling.
Serve over whatever dessert you’d like. To store, cover and transfer to a fridge. The raspberry sauce will keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
