Apple Cider Syrup Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat until it begins to bubble, about 1 minute. Add sugar and molasses; stir until sugar has absorbed molasses and butter, about 3 minutes. The mixture will be very dry. Add 2 cups apple cider. Mix well and bring to a slow boil. Add cinnamon stick and continue to simmer syrup for about 10 minutes.
• Whisk together 1 tablespoon apple cider, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a small bowl.
• Pour cornstarch mixture into syrup in the saucepan, whisking continuously until fully incorporated. Simmer until thickened, with a consistency similar to warm maple syrup, about 5 minutes. The syrup will thicken upon cooling.
• Serve warm. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring the cider to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil the cider until it has reduced to a thin syrup (you should have about 1/2 cup), approximately 25 minutes. Cool and store at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a 1-quart, heat proof, microwavable measuring bowl, mix all of the ingredients. Heat in the microwave on high for about 5 minutes or until the butter is completely melted. Stir and heat until mixture is reduced to 1 1/2 cups, about 10 minutes. Let stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes until slightly thickened.
• Hints for success: - Be sure to heat the griddle before pouring your pancake batter. - Using a copper bowl to whisk the egg whites will give you more volume. - Do not whisk the whites until they appear dry. They should be stiff, yet moist. - Fold the whites and the squash mixture gently. If you over do it you will deflate the whites and have tougher, flatter pancakes. - The syrup is rich and full of flavor. You can make it the night before, refrigerate it and reheat the next morning. - Use the freshest apple cider you can find. If you use apple juice, try to use one that is not overly sweet.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan stir together the sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon.
• Then stir in the apple cider or juice and lemon juice.
• Cook and stir the mixture over medium heat till the mixture is thickened and bubbly.
• Then cook and stir for 2 minutes more.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter or margarine till melted.
• Makes about 1 1/3 cups.
