Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1.5 teaspoons Maple extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the brown sugar and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar is fully dissolved.
As the mixture comes to a low simmer, add the butter and stir until melted.
Reduce the heat to low and let the syrup cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the maple extract, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt for balance.
Allow the syrup to cool slightly before transferring it to a heat-safe container or serving pitcher.
Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or any dish of your choice. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
