Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberry sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside. Cool to room temperature.
Step 2
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl as needed. Add 4 tablespoons of blueberry sauce to the cheese. Beat until well combined. Serve over bagels or toast.
You will have leftover blueberry sauce; serve with the spread for additional flavor.
