This recipe is a great one to make for a Mother’s Day Breakfast or Brunch, even if you have to make it for yourself, you are totally worth it!
I got this recipe from a friend and fell in love with it. It is like melted caramel and once you try it, you may never want to go back to maple syrup! I make this every once in awhile when I really want to splurge for breakfast, and then again for dessert, because the leftovers make a great caramel sauce for ice cream!
Buttermilk Syrup
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup buttermilk or sour milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon corn syrup
Combine butter, sugar and buttermilk in large saucepan (this boils up a lot!) and bring to a boil. Boil 1 minute and add vanilla, soda and corn syrup. Reduce heat to medium low (should still be simmering) and stir constantly until the color turns golden brown. Remove from heat and serve immediately or allow to cool to room temperature, pour into jars and refrigerate until ready to use. Heat for 20-30 seconds in microwave to warm it up again.This can make a very yummy, fun gift just by tying a ribbon around the jar, adding a tag with the name on it and punching a circle of scrapbook paper for the top of the lid! So easy!
So are you ready to go and spoil yourself? I think that we should celebrate WOMEN all week this week, so let’s start with this yummy Buttermilk syrup! After you make this little treat feel free to just use a spoon and eat it out of the bottle. I did!
yummy!, that sounds awesome
Thanks for your comment! This really is one of my favorite recipes and it makes everything seem a little more special.
