Blackberry Sauce - oh yes!

Regular readers of this blog will know of my love for blackberries. That beautiful dark colour indicates lots of anthocyanin, a super powerful antioxidant. I made this lovely blackberry sauce that was ridiculously simple and wanted to share the 2-ingredient recipe and give you a list of suggested uses:

Quick and easy blackberry sauce

250g / 1 heaping cup fresh blackberries
1 tsp coconut sugar

Place berries and sugar in a pan and heat on medium for 20 minutes, mashing the fruit a bit. Puree in a blender or nutribullet and then sieve, removing seeds. Voila! Blackberry sauce. Keeps in the fridge for 3 days.
