Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, heavy cream, and unsalted butter.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk the ingredients together until the butter is melted and the mixture is fully combined.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking or burning.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens slightly and has a glossy appearance.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the ground cinnamon, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Allow the syrup to cool slightly before serving. It will thicken more as it cools.
Pour the Cinnamon Cream Syrup into a heat-safe container or serve immediately over your favorite breakfast or dessert.
