I begged my son to try this syrup- I knew he would love it. But he wouldn't because in his mind 'syrup' was dark brown and came in a ready to pour plastic container. He finally gave in after a huge bribe and tried one bite- breakfast has never been the same since. Now he won't eat pancakes unless I make the "special syrup" (as he calls it). It is amazing. If you've never had it, make it, and you'll wonder how you've eaten breakfast without it before :)
RECIPE
1 stick butter
3/4 C. sugar
1/2 C. buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
*In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in the sugar, then add the buttermilk. Keep stirring (slowly) until it comes to a boil. Boil for one minute then remove from the heat. Stir in vanilla and baking soda- the syrup will foam up. Use right away on pancakes or waffles.
Tips:
- You can see the foam in the first picture. It 'settles' within 10-15 minutes.
- This is a common recipe. The only variation I've seen is adding Corn Syrup to help thicken it. Corn Syrup is horrible for you so I try to avoid using it if possible.
- Refrigerate leftovers in a mason jar and warm it up the next day.
- You can double or triple the recipe if feeding a large group.
