Healthy Apple Brown Sugar Syrup
A delicious, fall syrup that is perfect for your morning cup of coffee or other fall creations you have.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Apple Juice 100% juice
- 1 cup Coconut Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Apple Pie Spice Make sure it is one with no added sugar
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, bring the apple juice to a slow boil.
- Once the apple juice is boiling, add the coconut sugar and apple pie spice to the pan and turn the heat down to medium-low. Bring the mixture back to a slow simmer.
- Stir the mixture every few minutes and keep a careful eye on it so it doesn't burn or boil over. Let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the syrup thickens and sticks to the back of a spoon.
- Remove the syrup from the heat, pour it into a mason jar (or other glass jar), and let it cool to room temperature before refrigerating.
Notes
- It is important to look for 100% fruit juice without extra sugar in it or this syrup will be incredibly sweet.
- Don't be afraid to cook this low and slow. If you cook it at too high of heat, the sugar can burn and ruin the flavor.
- If for some reason the sugar starts to crystalize, add ¼ teaspoon of cream of tartar to the syrup when simmering and it will prevent future clumping.
