Ingredients

Scale

Gingerbread Syrup Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup unsulphured molasses
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small skillet or saucepan, add the brown sugar, water, molasses, ground ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Stir to combine all the ingredients evenly.
  2. Boil and Simmer: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the syrup to thicken slightly.
  3. Cool: Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the syrup cool down to room temperature.
  4. Store: Transfer the cooled syrup to a container with a lid and refrigerate. It can be stored in the fridge for about one to two weeks.

Notes

  • This syrup is perfect for adding to coffee, lattes, hot chocolate, or even pancakes for a gingerbread twist.
  • If the syrup thickens too much in the fridge, warm it slightly before use.
  • You can adjust the spices to suit your taste, adding more ginger for extra heat or cinnamon for warmth.
  • Use unsulphured molasses for the best flavor and avoid any bitterness.
  • Ensure the syrup is stored in a sealed container to preserve freshness.
