Notes

How to Make the Apple Vanilla Simple Syrup

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups apples, chopped
  • 1 cup demerara sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 vanilla bean, split down the middle
Instructions:
1. Combine the sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat and stir frequently until all of the sugar has dissolved.
2. Add the apple and bring the mixture to a simmer. Simmer about 10 minutes or until flavorful.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow its contents to cool before straining out the solids. The cooked apples can be reserved for a topping for ice cream or oatmeal.
Store the syrup in a glass bottle or jar in the refrigerator. It will keep for 2-3 weeks. Optionally, add one ounce of liquor (such as aged rum) to help it stay fresher for longer.
