Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  1. Melt Butter and Combine Ingredients: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Whisk thoroughly to combine all ingredients into a smooth mixture.
  2. Bring to Boil and Simmer: Bring the mixture to a full boil, then immediately reduce the heat to a simmer. Continue whisking constantly for 2 minutes, allowing the syrup to thicken slightly.
  3. Add Baking Soda and Foam Up: Whisk in the baking soda and cook for an additional 30 seconds while whisking constantly. The mixture will foam and rise as the baking soda reacts, creating a light texture.
  4. Rest and Cool: Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the syrup to rest for a few minutes. This will let the foam settle and the syrup to thicken to the perfect consistency before serving.

Notes

  • The recipe yields about 1 ¾ cups of syrup, enough for approximately 30 servings.
  • Store leftover syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to several weeks.
  • Reheat refrigerated syrup in the microwave for a few seconds before serving to restore its pourable consistency.
