Homemade Buttermilk Syrup
Description
This Homemade Buttermilk Syrup recipe involves melting salted butter in a deep pot, then adding sugar, buttermilk, light corn syrup, and baking soda. The mixture is stirred and brought to a boil, cooking for 5 to 7 minutes until a light golden color appears. Baking soda causes the syrup to foam and expand during cooking, which is why a tall pot is recommended. After boiling, the syrup is removed from heat and vanilla is stirred in for flavor. The final syrup is smooth and rich with a balance of sweetness and the mild tang imparted by the buttermilk.
The syrup is intended as a drizzle for pancakes, waffles, crepes, or similar breakfast foods, adding moisture and a creamy, buttery sweetness. It can be stored in a glass jar in the refrigerator to keep for later use.
