Ingredients

  • 2 cups apple cider
  • ¾ cup (150 g) dark brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined and no lumps remain.
  • Whisk in the apple cider and apple cider vinegar.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring often. Once bubbling, cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring, until the syrup looks glossy and coats the back of a spoon. It will still look slightly thin at this point.*
  • Remove from the heat. Stir in the butter until melted, then stir in the vanilla.
  • Serve warm over apple cider pancakes or your favorite breakfast treats.

Notes

*The syrup will thicken as it sits and cools, so don't worry if it seems a little thin while it is still hot.
