Description
This easy and quick keto simple syrup is perfect for sweetening beverages without the carbs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup granulated erythritol
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the water and erythritol.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the erythritol is completely dissolved. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- If using, stir in the vanilla extract once the mixture is dissolved.
- Remove from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature.
- Transfer the syrup to a clean glass jar or bottle and store it in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- Ensure that the erythritol is fully dissolved to avoid graininess in the syrup.
- You can experiment with different flavorings such as almond extract or lemon zest for a unique twist.
- If you prefer a thicker syrup, you can simmer the mixture for a few extra minutes to reduce it slightly.
