Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup buttermilk This is the star ingredient that gives the syrup its unique tangy flavor and creamy texture.
- 1 cup granulated sugar Provides sweetness and helps to create that thick, syrupy consistency.
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter Adds richness and depth to the syrup.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances the flavor of the syrup.
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda Helps to create a lighter texture in the syrup.
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, add the buttermilk, granulated sugar, and unsalted butter. Stir gently until the sugar begins to dissolve.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously as the mixture heats up to prevent the sugar from settling and burning.
- Once the butter is fully melted, bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the baking soda and vanilla extract. Be cautious as the mixture may bubble up.
- Allow the syrup to cool for a few minutes before transferring it to a glass jar or airtight container.
Notes
Homemade buttermilk syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Give it a gentle stir or warm it slightly before serving if it thickens.
