This recipe is actually one that is in my Baby Food Maker cookbook?  The book walks you through more than 125 recipes and shows you how to make them in different baby food makers (baby food makers review here), as well as via stovetop.  It also includes a handy chart of how to transition kids into different food phases and even how to use your baby food maker beyond baby years.

Easy and delicious strawberry sauce recipe

Back to the delicious strawberry sauce at hand!  This strawberry sauce is super simple to throw together and everyone will love it.  Strawberries have a natural sweetness that is just perfect if you ask me, but some people need an extra touch of sugar and this recipe has exactly that.

How to make the best Strawberry Sauce Recipe

With three simple ingredients to make strawberry sauce, how much easier can it get?  All you need is:

  1. Fresh strawberries
  2. Sugar
  3. Pure vanilla extract

Oh and you will needs some water as well, but we all have that!

Super simple strawberry sauce

The sauce only takes about 20 minutes from start to finish so you can pour it over your favorite dish and enjoy!  Personally, I’m choosing ice cream or yogurt.  And the kids, love it on their oatmeal (well, they love it on everything).

      Great question! This keeps for 2 weeks (on the conservative side) in the refrigerator. You can also freeze it and it lasts for 3 months in the freezer (I just freeze it in ice cubes).
