How to Make Pumpkin Spice Syrup
Ingredients:
- 80 grams of Pumpkin Puree (about 1/3 cup)
- 100 grams of White Sugar (1/2 cup)
- 100 grams of Brown Sugar (1/2 cup)
- 1/2 teaspoon of Vanilla Paste
- 300 ml of Water (about 1 1/4 cups)
- 1 teaspoon of Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon of Nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon of Cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon of Ground Ginger
*Use 200 grams (1 cup) of sugar substitute instead of the sugars
Method:
- Add all of the ingredients to a tall, heavy-bottomed saucepan.
- Turn the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring continuously.
- Once the mix is at a rolling boil, turn the pan down to medium and simmer, stirring every few minutes to keep the bottom from burning.
- Cook the syrup for 10-15 minutes until the sugar is dissolved and the consistency looks like maple syrup.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool for 5 minutes.
- Strain the syrup into a heat-proof container and leave to cool completely before covering and placing it in the fridge.
Note: the syrup will thicken in the fridge but will smooth out when you add it to your hot latte!
