Directions
-
Place one package (10 oz) of thawed raspberries into a fine-mesh sieve set over a saucepan. Press the berries firmly with the back of a spoon to extract the juice and pulp, discarding the seeds remaining in the sieve.
-
Add the second package of whole thawed raspberries to the saucepan containing the strained juice.
-
Stir in the brown sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
-
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a gentle simmer and thickens, about 5 to 7 minutes.
-
Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
