Preparation Steps
1
Wash the blueberries and set aside. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds.
2
In a saucepan, gently heat the milk over low heat with the vanilla bean seeds and the pod. Do not boil.
3
In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and cornstarch. Slowly pour in the warm vanilla milk, whisking constantly to combine.
4
Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
5
Add the grated lemon zest and the blueberries, then cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the blueberries soften and begin to burst.
6
Strain the sauce for a smoother consistency, if desired, or leave it chunky. Serve warm over cakes, ice cream, or pancakes.
