homemade buttermilk syrup

Have you heard of this??

I hadn't.

So, while we were making buttermilk pancakes for breakfast and had leftover buttermilk, I remembered that I had this recipe bookmarked and pulled it up!

So. Good.

Go make it.

Now.

And let's pretend that I didn't eat it with a spoon after breakfast.

Buttermilk Syrup

Makes about a cup.

1/2 cup butter

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup buttermilk

1 tablespoon light corn syrup

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon vanilla

In a large pot, combine butter, sugar, buttermilk, and light corn syrup, and bring to a boil for about 2 to 3 minutes. Add baking soda and vanilla. Mixture will fizz up to about twice the size so watch it!  Set it aside to thicken while stirring occasionally. Pour the lovely honey-colored syrup over waffles, pancakes, or French toast!
