My homemade pancake recipe is super easy and results in light, fluffy pancakes. It’s only right to have this super-easy homemade maple-flavored pancake syrup to go with it.

It’s amazing that this recipe has only a few simple ingredients. And it’s so easy that you only mix it up, boil for 7 minutes and BOOM!  Homemade pancake syrup. Wanna know how??

Homemade Pancake Tradition

It’s our tradition on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day to make whatever the honoree wishes for breakfast.

This year for Mother’s Day my Honey asked what I wanted for breakfast. Usually I want yogurt and fruit, but on this day I wanted homemade pancakes. 

I have an awesome but simple pancake recipe so mixing up the pancakes would be a snap for him. But I wanted MY syrup, not the store-bought stuff.

So I whipped up a batch of pancake syrup beforehand to go with those delicious fluffy homemade pancakes. 

Homemade pancake syrup is simple and takes only 7 minutes to make. #TexasHomesteader

Simple Pancake Syrup Ingredients

First I gather my ingredients:  3/4 cups brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 3/4 cup water, 1/4 cup honey (can use 1/2 cup corn syrup instead) and 1/2 teaspoon each of *maple flavoring and vanilla.

I love that it contains such SIMPLE ingredients!  (I found maple flavoring at Amazon.com, affiliate link above)

…and then in only 7 minutes…

I dump everything except the maple & vanilla into a small saucepan and turn the heat on medium high. As I stir the mixture begins to boil. When it begins to boil I set the timer for 7 minutes and continue boiling, stirring constantly. 

After 7 minutes I pull the pan from the heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon each of maple flavor and vanilla. 

THAT’S IT!

Can you believe it’s that easy? I allow it to cool slightly then pour it into my a vintage syrup jar. It makes pouring the homemade pancake syrup easy and mess free.

This syrup has no preservatives so I just make enough to enjoy for the meal and maybe a little after (I’m thinking french toast next to use it all up, hummm….)

Can you believe how ridiculously easy this is??  And I’m guessing the cost is maybe a quarter or less to make my own delicious syrup.

I’ll never buy the stuff in a plastic bottle from the store again. This recipe is delicious and zero waste. No disposable plastic bottle filled with commercially-produced syrup that contains questionable ingredients for my family.

I’m sure you want the same for your family too. Want the recipe? Your wish is my command!
