Homemade Pancake Syrup

Homemade Pancake Syrup blends butter, sugars, and buttermilk with vanilla and cinnamon, then finishes with baking soda to create a rich, creamy syrup. This syrup simulates the texture and flavor of traditional pancake syrup with a buttery sweetness and a hint of spice, suitable for pancakes and waffles. It stores well refrigerated and reheats easily.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 cup buttermilk (can easily make your own)
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large saucepan, melt butter. Add sugar, buttermilk, vanilla, and cinnamon then whisk to combine. Bring mixture to a full boil, and once boiling, reduce to simmer for 2 minutes while whisking constantly.
  2. Whisk in baking soda and cook for 30 more seconds, whisking constantly. Mixture will foam and rise.
  3. Remove from heat and set aside to rest for a few minutes before serving.
  4. Store leftover pancake syrup in the fridge for up to a month. Reheat in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.

Notes

  • This recipe yields about 1 3/4 cups of syrup.
  • Store leftover syrup in the refrigerator for up to one month.
  • Reheat gently in the microwave for a few seconds before serving to restore pourable consistency.
