- 1 cup apple juice or apple cider
- 2 cups of sugar
- a piece of cinnamon stick or a big dash cinnamon
In a quart-sized saucepan, combine the apple juice (or cider), sugar and cinnamon. Place the pan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. When the syrup starts to boil, reduce the heat. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer the syrup for ten minutes without stirring. Remove from heat and allow to cool for fifteen minutes. Transfer the syrup to a pint size canning jar or other container. Makes a little less than 2 cups.
Another great way to get apple syrup is to fail at making apple jelly. LOL I made a whole batch that never gelled. Instead of crying over it, I added a bit of cinnamon and voila!….apple syrup! Never let those failed experiments go to waste.
lol i di the same thing i was making black berry jam and i dont know what i did wrong but the same thing it did not set so my mother used it for ice cream topping now she asked me to make every year for her lol
