blackberry sauce/syrup

I have been putting together fruit sauces/syrups to go with our pancakes.  And we had pancakes again this weekend.

Blackberry Sauce

2 cups blackberries (I use frozen)

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon ginger

Over medium heat, put the blackberries, sugar, cinnamon, and ginger.  Heat until a bubbly juicy mess.

I serve this over pancakes but it would also be fabulous over vanilla ice cream.  It is  a bit on the tart side so you may wish to add more sugar.  And the cinnamon and ginger are always to taste.  Russell ALWAYS likes MORE cinnamon.

I actually wish we had these for dinner tonight but I had no sourdough started and we were grandpuppy sitting.  So I made beans.  And I am tired.  

Early night for me!  Huzzah!
