Apple Cider Syrup

Our pumpkin waffles had a party.

Pure, local maple syrup is usually our gig, but we saw this goodness and just had to give it a try.  My daughter, Kyrsten (now ascended to rock star status) gets all of the credit for making these waffles and its apple-y, gooey, cinnamon-y, buttery, dripping with yum syrup. This Apple Cider Syrup has a kick of apple that surprised and very much pleased our tastebuds.  We cut this recipe in half as she made this as well as Cinnamon Syrup  for one meal, but I will include directions for the full recipe.

You certainly don’t need pumpkin waffles.  Fluffy Pancakes would be all you need, or if you love all of the apple things,  Apple Pancakes are my personal favorite.

Here’s how you whip it up in just a few little minutes.

Over medium heat, whisk the following ingredients together:

1 c. brown sugar

2 T. cornstarch

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 tsp. allspice

1/4 tsp. ginger

1/8 tsp. cloves

1/8 tsp. salt.

Then whisk in 2 c. of apple cider,

and 1 1/2 T. apple cider vinegar.

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and boil for 1 1/2 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 c. butter that has been cut into cubes.

Serve warm.  Store in the refrigerator and warm back up to serve again.
