Homemade strawberry sauce is very easy to make. I like to make huge batches of simple strawberry sauce and freeze them in one cup portions.
An easy, homemade strawberry sauce made with only three ingredients and freezer friendly too. Perfect on top of Greek yogurt, oatmeal, pancakes, waffles, and pound cake.
Homemade Strawberry Sauce

Ingredients:
- 2 16 ounce baskets of strawberries
- 1/4 – 1/2 cup of sugar or a couple tablespoons stevia

- Wash strawberries and remove stems.
- Cut strawberries in half.
- Place strawberries in a medium pot over low heat.
- Add sweetener to taste and water.

- Store in a glass bowl in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days.
To Serve:
- Serve chilled on top of pound cake or sponge cake with homemade whipped cream to make an easy strawberry shortcake.
- Stir into plain Greek yogurt for a delicious treat.
- Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or stir into oatmeal.
- Also delicious on top of vanilla ice cream.

To store in the freezer:

We love this simple strawberry sauce on top of Greek yogurt, ice cream, mixed in our oatmeal, or on top of pound cake!
Have a great day!
