Paleo friendly Blueberry Sauce/Spread Recipe

After enjoying my STRAWBERRY SAUCE recipe so much, I started thinking a blueberry sauce would be good too. For the blueberry sauce, I subbed organic frozen Blueberries from Costco for the fresh strawberries and  came out with a wonderful sauce.  This will be a great accompaniment to my CREPE recipe, or on a variety of other items ( like maybe pancakes, ice cream, etc.) I'm sure you can come up with some great ideas for it.

BLUEBERRY SAUCE

4 cups organic frozen blueberries (slightly thawed)
1/2 cup thawed, frozen apple juice concentrate
1 tsp. grated orange zest
1/4 tsp. cinnamon (I use Saigon)


Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.  Once it hits a boil, keep it on medium and let it boil for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Then reduce heat to low and simmer longer if needed, you are just looking for the fruit to soften and for a nice constancy.  Keep in mind though, that the sauce will thicken a bit when removed from the heat.  Cool slightly and serve.  Or store in pretty jars in your refrigerator after it cools completely.  YUM!
