I know in the Philippines maple syrup is not always available and so I asked for a substitute for it. Here’s an easy substitute for maple syrup.

you will need...

1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon maple extract (or vanilla extract)
1 teaspoon butter
1 cup boiling water

here is how....

1. Place the granulated sugar in a heavy skillet. 
2. Heat until the sugar melts and turns brown (keep the heat very low so the sugar doesn’t burn).
3. Meanwhile, place the brown sugar into a heavy saucepan.
4. Pour water over the brown sugar and bring to a boil (without stirring). 
5. Add the caramelized white sugar to the melted brown sugar in the saucepan. 
6. Simmer, stirring often, until the syrup has thickened.
7. Remove from the heat, and whisk in the butter and maple/vanilla extract.

This makes about 1 cup.

Enjoy eating guys c:

    Hi!

    I saw your recent comment about money bloggers. I think you mis-understood my words. I wrote that I had NO problem with bloggers that have some ads and pay clicks. The opinions with negative spins were directed at SPLOGS only. These are sites that have attacked my computer.

    You have a wonderful blog here. If what I said was mis-construed, then indeed I do appologize.

    Thanx for taking the time to come here and explain also,your apology is accepted. but the truth is the other people who were not careful on their words and those judging ones were the ones I was a bit disappointed. The way they expressed it was already "foul" c:
