Easy Strawberry Sauce recipe. Made with only 3 ingredients, this homemade sweet treat can be used on pancakes, ice cream and beyond.
Still holding on to the tail end of strawberry season before accepting my fate and baking all things apple and pumpkin.
I’m probably going to hold out until September 22nd. Because the start of pumpkin spice season should start at the beginning of fall on the calendar. I am still mourning the end of summer over here.
This Strawberry Sauce really hit the spot.
I have been loving it on ice cream, on top of pancakes, in my oatmeal… you name it, I put this Strawberry Sauce in it.
And when it’s this easy to make, you don’t need to feel guilty about “wasting” it on anything in particular. Just make another batch!
What do you need to make this Strawberry Sauce?
Basically just strawberries and some pantry essentials. More specifically:
- fresh strawberries
- sugar
- lemon juice
That is it!!
If you want something else to top your ice cream and pancakes with, try my Blackberry Sauce. It is one of my favourites, and almost as easy as this recipe.
