Fresh Berry Sauce

This is a simple (two ingredients!), healthy alternative to maple syrup.  Goes great with pancakes or waffles!

Fresh Berry Sauce
Makes 4 Servings

Ingredients:
2 cups fresh berries (blackberries are pictured)
1/2 tbsp granulated sugar

Directions:
1.  Place berries in a small pot over medium-low heat, sprinkle with sugar and cover.  Allow to simmer gently, while the berries release juices; approximately 10 minutes. 

2.  Uncover and, using a potato masher or back of a spoon, smash the berries to make a chunky sauce.  Lower heat to simmer and allow to cook uncovered until sauce is thickened (I usually just let it cook until my pancakes are all finished).  Spoon over pancakes or waffles and enjoy!
