This easy syrup is the perfect topping for ice cream, pancakes, and waffles. It also makes a delicious syrup for your coffee (just leave the pecans out if you would like to make it for this purpose). It is sweet, buttery and has the best maple flavor!<\/p>\n

Maple Syrup \u2013<\/strong> You can’t have a Maple Butter Pecan Syrup without the maple. The real stuff is what makes this!<\/p>\n

Butter \u2013<\/strong> This adds a richness and buttery flavor to your syrup.<\/p>\n

Raw Cane Sugar<\/a> \u2013<\/strong> This combined with the butter and maple will give this syrup a caramel vibe.<\/p>\n

Pecan Halves or Pieces –<\/b> This is optional. If you don’t like pecans you can leave this out but it adds a fabulous crunch and flavor to the syrup!<\/span><\/p>\n

How to make Maple Butter Pecan Syrup\u2026<\/h2>\n
Don’t let the word syrup scare you, this recipe really is super simple!<\/h5>\n
First up, slice up your butter, just into tablespoon size squares. This will help it to melt faster.<\/h5>\n
Now, go ahead and add everything into your pot, EXCEPT the pecans. That’s right, just toss it in, there is no rhyme or reason.<\/h5>\n

\"Maple<\/p>\n

Turn your stove top on to low\/medium. You want to start to melt everything nice and slow so it doesn’t burn, whisking occasionally as it starts to melt.<\/h5>\n
Once your butter is melted down then you will turn your burner up to medium heat and let it continue to melt and start to come to a low boil, still whisking occasionally.<\/h5>\n

\"Maple<\/p>\n

This is the time that you really need to keep an eye on it. As it continues to come to a rolling boil the mixture will start to rise in the pot. You will want to continue to whisk now constantly, or it will boil out of the pot.<\/h5>\n
Allow it to boil constantly for 1 to 2 minutes (1 minute minimum). This will allow the mixture to thicken some. It will still taste amazing no matter the consistency. <\/h5>\n

\"Maple<\/p>\n

After you have allowed it to boil, turn off your burner and remove it from the heat. Now is the time to add in your pecans.<\/h5>\n

\"Maple<\/p>\n

I suggest allowing to cool for at least 10 minutes. Boiled sugars or syrups can be VERY hot. As yummy as it is, don’t risk burning your mouth.<\/h5>\n
Once it has cooled down a bit you are ready to enjoy!!!<\/h5>\n

FAQs<\/h2>\n

How To Store?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Store in the refrigerator in an airtight glass jar for up to a week.<\/p>\n

Can I swap out the nuts for a different options?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Definitely! If pecans aren’t your thing, you can use any nut you would like. Walnuts are also amazing as well!<\/p>\n
