Homemade Strawberry Sauce (Topping) | Sally's Baking Addiction image

Make homemade strawberry topping sauce for your desserts or breakfast using fresh strawberries with this simple 10 minute recipe.

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 Tablespoon cornstarch
3 Tablespoons (45ml) warm water
1 lb strawberries, hulled and sliced in half (you can use frozen; don't thaw)
zest and juice from 1/2 lemon*
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk the cornstarch and water together until all the cornstarch has dissolved. (I just use a fork to mix-- very easy.)
  • Place the cornstarch mixture, along with the rest of the ingredients, into a small saucepan over medium heat. Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir the mixture as it cooks. Break up some of the strawberries as you stir.
  • Bring it to a simmer and allow to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. After 5 minutes, remove pan from the heat and allow to cool. The mixture will thicken as it cools.
  • You can serve the sauce warm before it cools completely if desired, or store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Strawberry topping will be thick after refrigeration, so microwave for 15 seconds or warm on the stove to thin out, if desired.
