– 1/4 cup water
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– 1 tablespoon cold water
– Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions:

6. Bake the raspberries in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the berries are soft and the sauce is bubbling.
7. Remove from the oven and let the dish cool slightly before serving. You can garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and added freshness.
