Buttermilk Syrup

Posted on by
As promised
here is my Buttermilk Syrup recipe
(although I can’t really call it my own, I got it from my sister, and she got it from her sister-in-law)
anyway…
This syrup is super sweet, super buttery and down right yummy!  It is very simple to make and usually I whip it up while frying pancakes in the morning, however it can be made ahead and kept in the refrigerator.
Here are the ingredients:
1 cup Butter
1 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking soda

First, melt the butter.

Then add sugar and milk, whisk together and bring to a boil.

It will be creamy and frothy

Once the butter mixture is boiling, take it off the heat and add vanilla and baking soda.

The baking soda will make the mixture very foamy and big (for lack of a better word), so make sure you watch it so it won’t bubble over the sides of the pan (using a big pan helps)

Serve nice and hot
(my kids fight over the frothy stuff at the top!)

(isn’t this the cutest jar!  I have an obsession with cute jars)

If you aren’t going to use it right away, or if by some odd chance you have leftovers (really this shouldn’t happen) keep it in the refrigerator.  It will going solid because of all the yummy butter, just heat it up before serving.

Enjoy!

  1. I've had this from a friend before and to me it tastes like caramel. I LOVE it! Thanks for the recipe!

  2. Is that your homemade vanilla? How'd it turn out? I would love to make some hubby just won't let me buy all that vodka 😉
