Tammy's Review: 

I love this sweet homemade syrup! My mom always made this for pancakes when I was growing up. I know it's very sweet... so we don't make it very often... but it's sooooo yummy!! (We usually use fruit on our pancakes or waffles.) My rating: 10/10

Great Base Recipe

I have to admit up front that I altered the recipe because we didn't have maple flavoring. We used almond, and I'm actually glad we were out of maple. The basic recipe is so good that I think we will experiment some with flavorings we might not have otherwise. Thanks!

YUM!

This was really really REALLY good. A little went a long way. I definately see myself making granola with this syrup too.
