Ingredients

8 servings
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 cup water

Steps

  1. Combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup brown sugar, and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan.

  2. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, stirring occasionally. Let it boil for about 90 seconds, stirring.

  3. Remove from heat and let cool for 2 or 3 minutes, stirring. Add 1 teaspoon maple extract, 1 tablespoon butter, and a little pinch of salt.

  5. Store the syrup in a sealed jar in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop when you want to serve it again!
