Healthy Homemade Sugar Free Blueberry Syrup Recipe (only 5 calories!)



Jun 3, 2014

This Healthy Homemade Sugar Free Blueberry Syrup contains no high-fructose corn syrup, artificial flavorings, or artificial food colorings, just pure blueberry goodness.

This low-calorie syrup is perfect paired with oatmeal, yogurt, ice cream, smoothies, and so much more!  Thick, sweet and syrupy, this is oh so good.  Just like the store-bought syrups but without all the artificial ingredients.

This Healthy Sugar Free Blueberry Syrup tastes like blueberries in liquid form. You'd never know it's fat free, sugar free, and 5 calories per serving!

Instead of sweetening this Healthy Sugar Free Blueberry Syrup with high fructose corn syrup, bleached white sugar, artificial sweeteners and aspartame, I used all-natural stevia.

Instead of using citric acid I used organic lemon flavoring for a bit of tartness and to lighten up the blueberry flavor.

Instead of potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate (preservatives) that are typically added to store-bought syrups, I used…  no preservatives!

And instead of artificial food dyes (that are linked to hyperactivity, ADHD, tumors, cancer, and so on) I used all natural, plant-based food coloring.

All of these ingredient replacements are just so you can feel good about pouring this into your pie hole drizzling this over your meal of choice…  aka, dessert.  DUH.
