Ingredients

• 1½ lbs. fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered or halved, depending on size (about 4 cups)
• 1 cup maple syrup*
• juice of ½ a lemon
• 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste (may be substituted with pure vanilla extract)

Directions

• Place the strawberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice in a large non-reactive saucepan and stir to combine. Heat over medium heat until boiling, then reduce heat to medium low and continue cooking for 50-60 minutes until the strawberries have cooked down and have thickened. Stir every 10 minutes or so to prevent burning. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy!
