Blueberry Pancakes With Blueberry Sauce

1. 1

   To make the sauce, combine the lemon zest and blueberries in a medium saucepan over medium heat. The blueberries will start to give off their juices so you don't need to add any liquid to the pan. Just make sure to stir them often so they don't burn. Cook them until all the juices are released, about 7-8 minutes. Then press through a sieve to remove the pulp, make sure to press all the juice out. Put the juice into a clean sauce pan and add the maple syrup, cook, stirring often until thick and syrupy, about 10 minutes.
