My husband has fond memories of this pancake syrup recipe. Every Sunday morning, his dad would get up early to make the family pancakes and homemade syrup. They didn't have much money, but the kids never knew that. What they do remember is that their dad always had time to make their Sundays extra special. -Lorrie McCurdy, Farmington, New Mexico

Tips for Making Homemade Pancake Syrup:

  • Use real maple syrup as a base: Pure maple syrup provides a rich, authentic flavor that can't be replicated with artificial syrups.
  • Add spices and extracts for extra flavor: Cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, and almond extract are all popular additions that can enhance the taste of your syrup.
  • Use butter or oil to add richness: A little bit of butter or oil can help to thicken the syrup and give it a more luxurious texture.
  • Don't overcook the syrup: Overcooked syrup will become thick and sticky, so be sure to remove it from the heat as soon as it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Store the syrup properly: Homemade pancake syrup should be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Conclusion:

Making your own pancake syrup is a simple and rewarding process that can result in a delicious, unique condiment that is perfect for topping pancakes, waffles, or French toast. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a syrup that is sure to impress your family and friends.
