Maple syrup is a must for topping on top of pancakes, waffles or french toast. It is so quick and easy to make this homemade maple syrup. It takes less than 10 minutes to make, so you can prepare it while you cook your breakfast food that you want to serve the syrup on. It is a great substitute to store bought maple syrup that can be served on anything that you would normally put syrup on.
This homemade maple syrup is made by boiling water, granulated sugar and brown sugar together in a saucepan. Once the mixture is boiling, remove it from heat. Stir in maple extract to give the syrup the traditional maple flavoring. If you do not have any maple extract, you can still flavor this syrup with any other flavored extracts that you have. It will not have a maple syrup flavor, but it will still taste delicious on top of pancakes.
