@crowdedkitchen: 1-ingredient Apple Cider Syrup! 🍎🧇 recipe below 👇 You can turn a gallon of apple cider into a thick, flavorful, rich syrup that’s absolutely delicious on pancakes and waffles, ice cream, yogurt, in coffee or a cocktail, and really anywhere else you would use maple syrup! It has a super concentrated apple cider flavor and it’s sweet, but not too sweet since we don’t add any extra sugar. Basically, you just boil the cider down until it’s an eighth of its original volume, then let it cool until it thickens. We add a cinnamon stick for extra flavor, and you could also add other spices like nutmeg, cloves and ginger, but that’s completely optional! HERE’S HOW TO MAKE IT: Add apple cider to a large pot. It doesn’t matter how much you use, but make sure to measure the amount before pouring it in so you can keep track of how much volume it’s lost. Keep in mind that the larger the quantity of cider, the longer it will take to boil down. Optional: add a cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil. There may be a layer of foamy sediment on top – we skim it off and discard, but it’s fine to leave it as is. Boil over medium heat until the cider is 1/8 of its original volume. For example, if you’re using a half gallon (8 cups), you’ll need to boil it down to 1 cup. If using a full gallon, boil it down to 2 cups. This can take anywhere from 45 minutes to 2+ hours depending on how much cider you use and how high the heat is. Don’t worry if it doesn’t look very thick at this point. It should coat the back of a spoon, but it will still be runny until it cools. Once it’s reduced, remove the cinnamon stick and let cool slightly before refrigerating. Chill in the fridge for a few hours until the syrup fully cools and thickens, then enjoy! The consistency will be similar to a caramel sauce. For a thinner syrup (more like a simple syrup), don’t boil it down quite as far. Store in a clean jar for several months in the refrigerator. #apples #applecider #fallrecipe
