This vanilla syrup is creamy and has a lovely vanilla flavor. It’s sweet without being overly sweet and is perfect for atop pancakes or even drizzled in your morning tea or coffee.
Let’s get started!
In a saucepan, whisk together the water, sugar and cornstarch together.
Bring to a boil. Stir often.
Cook until thick, stirring constantly, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Once thickened, add butter, salt and vanilla.
Stir until butter is melted.
Add cream, stir well and remove from heat.
Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Syrup will be very hot.
Pour into a jar or pitcher to serve. Store leftovers in the fridge.
This syrup tastes so much better the next day!! It’s fabulous on pancakes or waffles!
This is one of our favorite homemade syrups!
