The Food Nanny Homemade Maple Syrup

We are so excited to share with you two of our favorite syrup recipes. They are the perfect topping for pancakes, waffles, french toast, you name in!

Our maple syrup recipe is going to be your traditional syrup. It is delicious and so light. It goes particularly well over something that already has a lot of flavor.

We also can not get enough of our butter syrup. It is dreamy! It makes even the simplest waffle taste out of this world. Kids beg for this, and adults end up coming back for more too.

The key to making both of thees syrups is the butter! Quality butter makes a world of difference. For years, we just purchased various store brand butters because they were a better price. We have now learned what a huge mistake that was!

Our favorite is Land O Lakes, but we also love Kerry Gold. Yes, you will spend a little bit more money. But the upgraded taste is worth every penny. Once you start using the better quality butter you will not be able to go back!

So next time you are making breakfast for dinner (like on Wednesday nights!) make one of these syrups! We just recently made our pancakes with Kamut flour and they were unbelievable. We topped them with the butter syrup and it quickly became one of your favorite recipes ever.

So get cooking, and enjoy!

xoxo!
