Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a medium saucepan, pour in the apple cider and add the granulated sugar, cinnamon stick, and whole cloves. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
-
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Once it boils, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for about 45-60 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent the syrup from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
-
Allow the mixture to reduce by about half, or until it reaches a syrupy consistency, as the flavors of the spices meld with the apple cider.
-
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Remove the cinnamon stick and whole cloves from the syrup using a fine-mesh strainer. Allow the syrup to cool slightly before transferring it to a glass jar or container for storage.
-
Drizzle the apple cider syrup over pancakes, waffles, French toast, ice cream, or yogurt. Store any leftover syrup in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
