Capture the fantastic flavors of fall with Apple Cider Syrup! You are going to love it on everything from pancakes and waffles to ice cream and even apple pie!

Capture the flavors of fall in apple cider syrup!

Pour Apple Cider Syrup over your favorite pancakes! You are going to want to lick the jar! Little Dairy on the Prairie

After I had my third baby I hired a babysitter. Well, I guess you could call her a babysitter. I hired her to help out around the house. My third, and last, baby cried all day and all night. He NEVER quit crying. In addition to listening to him cry all night and day, I had to keep up with all my bookkeeping duties too. I was falling farther and farther behind and decided to hire her. She saved my life, and my third born’s life too! We loved her!

One thing I quickly noticed about her was that we shared something in common. A love for my homemade hot fudge sauce, which I always have in my fridge. It’s like a staple ! I’m pretty sure she ate some every time she came over. If she was still around babysitting I know she would start eating Apple Cider Syrup out of the jar too! I know because that’s what I want to do too!

I could be easily persuaded to pour Apple Cider Syrup in a glass and drink it! Little Dairy on the Prairie

Apple Cider Syrup is smooth and dreamy! Our family has been enjoying it on all kinds of different things. It would be heavenly served over Gingerbread then topped with whipped cream. It’s really yummy warmed up and drizzled over vanilla ice cream sprinkled with cinnamon. See, you can get carried away with all kinds of yummy ideas for this stuff. Or you could just eat it straight from the jar with a spoon! (I won’t tell if you won’t)

Of course, Apple Cider Syrup is great on pancakes. Add a little cinnamon and nutmeg to your favorite pancake recipe and it’s even better. The stuff settles perfectly into every butter filled square of waffles too! You could steam or saute sliced apples, toss it with Apple Cider Syrup and serve it over either pancakes, French toast, or waffles. 
Versatile Apple Cider Syrup! You will find yourself pouring it over everything! Little Dairy on the Prairie

I’ve probably got the picture by now. Apple Cider Syrup is super duper versatile! It’s a quick and easy way to add the flavor of juicy fall apples to every day! You need to get this stuff in your fridge and then let your babysitter have some! Only if shes as good as mine was!

    Is there anything else I can use instead of lemon juice? I am allergic to that.

      Mary, I’m not sure what to substitute for lemon juice. I think I would just leave it out. I bet it would be just fine! Good luck!

      Substitute the lemon juice with white vinegar or apple cider vinegar.

        I love substitutions! Using vinegar would add a nice, and unexpected flavor!

      I’m not exactly sure how long this will keep in the fridge because my family eats it so quickly. I imagine it would last refrigerated for a few weeks.

    Love the looks of this. Can this recipe be canned? And how long will it hold in the refrigerator? I’m thinking this would be a great holiday gift. Thanks!

      I’m not sure if this syrup can be canned or not. We always make it and eat it right away. It nice to have jars of it sitting on the shelf though. Let me know if you try canning it!

    Maybe I missed it, but can this be canned and stored for sometime and then maybe reheated when you wanted to use it. Thought it would make some nice gifts if it will last for a bit. Thank you

      I haven’t ever canned this particular syrup recipe so I don’t dare say if it’s safe or not. I just make a little at a time and eat it fresh. It would make a diving gift though! Let me know if you try it.

      Don’t you love versatile recipes like this? It takes so many dishes from ordinary to extra ordinary! By the way, I won’t judge you a bit for eating it straight from the jar with a spoon!

    This looks divine! How long would this syrup keep? Can you can it or is there a way to extend the shelf life without keeping it in the refrigerator? Thank you so much for sharing!
