Note
For a smoother texture, you can mash the blueberries slightly with a fork before adding the cornstarch.
Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave before serving.
Fresh blueberries can be substituted for canned; if using fresh, you may need to add a tablespoon of sugar or water if the fruit is tart or dry.
Adjust the lemon juice to taste depending on how sweet your blueberries are.
