Description

A rich, creamy, and buttery syrup with a hint of tanginess from buttermilk. Perfect for pancakes, waffles, or French toast.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine buttermilk, butter, sugar, corn syrup, and baking soda.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Continue to boil for 5-7 minutes until the syrup thickens and turns a light golden color.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Let it cool slightly before serving. Syrup will thicken more as it cools.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Reheat gently before serving to restore smooth consistency.
  • Use full-fat buttermilk for the creamiest texture.
