Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Low sodium salt substitute (optional)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved, which should take about 5 minutes.
Once the sugar is dissolved, add the ground cinnamon and continue stirring until well combined.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract. If using, also add the low sodium salt substitute at this stage.
Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to a clean, airtight container or bottle for storage.
Store the syrup in the refrigerator and use within 2-3 weeks. Shake well before each use.
