1. Into a small saucepan, add your frozen wild blueberries, water, sweetener and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the liquid becomes thicker and has a syrupy consistency
2. Sprinkle the glucomannan powder over the surface of the soaked blueberries and stir immediately. Cook for about 5 more minutes
3. Ladle your cooked sauce into a blender or bullet type machine. Fill only half way, when pureeing hot ingredients. Add the MCT oil (half at a time if doing two batches). Puree for 20 – 30 seconds and until the sauce is very creamy and silky looking
4. Taste for sweetness and adjust if necessary

FYI
Do not make this syrup too sweet as it will be served with other dessert items, and it may overpower the dessert to which this blueberry sauce is being added.
Do you have to put glucomannan this will it thinker without it

Hi Lisa,
Thank you for your question. You do not have to use glucomannan, and you can thicken it a bit more by just cooking it longer to reduce a bit more the liquid, if making this syrup. For the jam, you will need either glucomannan or pectin to set it without making the texture firm and jelly-like.
Have a wonderful day – Cheers!
