This sauce will take your Sunday brunch to the next level. It is absolutely perfect on top of pancakes and waffles. The sweetness of the fruit is balanced nicely with the zing of the lemon. I most commonly make this as a strawberry sauce, but I also love substituting the strawberries for blueberries and making a blueberry sauce. It is absolutely decadent and delicious either way.
