Time 2h15m

Yield Makes four 12-ounce bottles (about 6 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups sugar
24 cardamom pods, crushed (1 tablespoon)
4 cinnamon sticks
2 vanilla beans, halved crosswise
Pinch of cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, cardamom, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan. Split vanilla beans lengthwise and scrape out seeds; add seeds and beans to sugar mixture with 4 cups water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high, stirring until sugar is dissolved (if it begins to boil, reduce heat -- boiling will make the syrup cloudy). Remove from heat; add cayenne. Let steep 1 hour.
  • Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large liquid-measuring cup; discard cardamom pods but reserve cinnamon sticks and vanilla beans. Refrigerate until completely cool, 1 hour. Pour into gift bottles; divide reserved vanilla beans and cinnamon sticks among bottles. Syrup can be stored in bottles, refrigerated, up to 1 month.

SPICY CINNAMON SYRUP

This recipe came to life one night after a Mexican meal. I decided I wanted to find some way of creating a dessert with prepackaged tortilla chips. Unsure of how to go about making cinnamon sugar tortilla chips this way, I opted to try a syrup drizzle concept instead. The result could best be described as cinnamon nachos! I have just listed the recipe for the syrup, as I think that it may go well with other desserts such as pound cake or fresh fruit as well. Feel free to experiment! Also feel free to use the brown sugar Splenda blend in place of the brown sugar. I tried it and the recipe turned out equally yummy!

Time 10m

Yield 1/2 cup, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon curry powder

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, allow the butter to melt slowly over low to medium heat.
  • When the butter is completely melted, add the spices and stir well to combine.
  • Slowly add the brown sugar and stir well to combine. You may not be able to get the butter and sugar perfectly blended yet; don't panic if this is the case.
  • Allow the mixture to come to a slow boil. Let it boil for a minute or two. This will thicken up the syrup and help to blend the butter and sugar better.
  • Remove from heat and let the mixture stand for a minute.
  • Serve with your choice of desserts and enjoy!

CINNAMON SYRUP

This is an adaptation of a friend's recipe. My kids go crazy over this syrup when we have pancakes or waffles. It's also good on apple slices or strawberries. The only problem is that my kids always forget their manners and lick the leftover syrup off their plates.

SPICY SIMPLE SYRUP

This recipe is a loose template; use any spice that seems festive and appealing to you, but bear in mind you are adding a relatively small amount of syrup per drink, so it pays to make it forceful. This blend includes cinnamon, allspice, star anise, cloves, vanilla and ginger root.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality cinnamon sticks. Look for cinnamon sticks that are smooth, unbroken, and have a strong, spicy aroma. Avoid sticks that are cracked or splintered, as they will not produce as much flavor.
  • Use a variety of spices. In addition to cinnamon, you can also add other spices to your syrup, such as star anise, cloves, and cardamom. This will give the syrup a more complex flavor.
  • Don't boil the syrup. Boiling the syrup will cause it to lose its delicate flavor. Instead, simmer it gently over low heat until it has reached the desired consistency.
  • Let the syrup cool completely before using it. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • Store the syrup in a cool, dark place. The syrup will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Spicy cinnamon syrup is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes. It can be added to coffee, tea, cocktails, and smoothies. It can also be used to top pancakes, waffles, and ice cream. With its warm, spicy flavor, spicy cinnamon syrup is sure to add a touch of flavor to your favorite dishes.
