Instructions
Wash fresh blueberries and place in the bowl of a food processor or high-speed blender.
Add 1 teaspoon lemon juice, water, and 1 tablespoon maple syrup - skip the sweetener for kids under 1 year old.
Blend/process at high speed until all the fruits are pulsed into a puree.
Taste the puree and adjust lemon and sweetener if needed. You can also add fresh vanilla seeds from a vanilla bean pod to boost the flavor. Blend 20 seconds after each addition you make.
Store 1 hour in the fridge to enhance flavors and thicken, or serve immediately for a quick snack.
Storage
Store the blueberry puree for up to 3 days in the fridge in sealed glass mason jars or freeze in an ice cube tray for later.
Thaw the day before in the fridge or use in smoothie recipes to thickened drinks.
