Description

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup apple cider (or apple juice as a substitute)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (or coconut sugar)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 sweet red apple (sliced, Honeycrisp recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small pot over high heat, combine the apple cider, brown sugar, vanilla extract, sliced apple, and ground cinnamon, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
  2. Bring to Boil: Heat the mixture until it reaches a rolling boil, which helps dissolve the sugar and start the infusion of flavors from the apples and spices.
  3. Simmer: Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 15 minutes, allowing the syrup to thicken and the flavors to fully meld together.
  4. Strain: After simmering, turn off the heat and strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve, separating the liquid from the apple slices (which can be saved for another use).
  5. Cool and Store: Let the syrup cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator, where it will keep fresh for up to two weeks.
  6. Enjoy: Use the syrup to flavor coffees, teas, cocktails, or desserts for a delicious apple crisp twist.

Notes

  • Use apple cider for the most authentic flavor; apple juice can be used as a substitute but is less tangy.
  • Saving the strained apple slices is a great way to reduce waste and add to oatmeal or yogurt.
  • Store the syrup in a glass container for best preservation of flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness by reducing or increasing the sugar amount according to preference.
  • This syrup can also be warmed slightly before serving for better blending in hot drinks.
