Buttermilk Syrup

August 5, 2013 by Leia

buttermilk syrup feature 517

Hands down, our absolute favorite syrup is Buttermilk Syrup.  (Pictured here on Apple Cinnamon Pancakes.)

It’s amazing. We love it on pancakes, waffles, french toast, aebleskivers, etc.   But it would also be yummy on ice cream or cakes, pretty much anywhere.

This syrup is super easy to make, and it only uses one pot!

Buttermilk syrup

You add butter, sugar, buttermilk, vanilla, and corn syrup.  Bring to a boil then stir in baking soda.

So easy, so good.  You may never go back to maple again!
