Units Scale

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 12 tablespoons milk (or heavy cream)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the maple syrup and powdered sugar until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of milk and the vanilla extract, and continue whisking until the glaze reaches a pourable consistency.
  2. If needed, add more milk, a little at a time, until desired thickness is reached.
  3. Stir in a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.
  4. Use immediately by drizzling over cakes, donuts, muffins, or pancakes.

Notes

  • For a thicker glaze suitable for spreading, use less milk.
  • For a thinner drizzle, add a bit more.
  • Heavy cream can be used instead of milk for a richer glaze.
