Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly until the sugars dissolve completely.
Once the mixture begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and allow it to simmer for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. The syrup will thicken slightly as it cooks.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the unsalted butter until it melts completely.
Add the vanilla extract and salt, then stir well to combine. Adjust the salt to taste if desired.
Let the syrup cool for a few minutes before serving. It will thicken further as it cools.
Serve warm over pancakes or French toast. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat before serving.
