Ingredients

• 1 cup Granulated sugar or Splenda
• 1 piece or tablespoon (depending on ingredient) Vanilla bean or other flavoring agent (e.g., cinnamon stick, dried lavender, citrus zest, etc.)

Directions

Step 1

Choose your flavoring agent, such as a vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, dried lavender, or citrus zest. Ensure the flavoring ingredient is thoroughly clean and dry before use.

Step 2

If using a vanilla bean, split it lengthwise with a sharp knife and scrape out the seeds. Keep both the seeds and the pod for infusing. For other ingredients like cinnamon sticks or lavender, use them as-is.

Step 3

In a clean, dry jar or airtight container, add 1 cup of granulated sugar or Splenda.

Step 4

Place the flavoring ingredient into the container, nestling it into the sugar or Splenda to ensure full contact.

Step 5

Seal the container tightly and shake it gently to distribute the flavoring ingredient. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Step 6

Allow the sugar or Splenda to infuse with the flavor for at least 5-7 days. Taste it periodically to check for the desired strength of flavor.

Step 7

Once the sugar or Splenda is infused to your liking, remove any large pieces of the flavoring ingredient (e.g., vanilla pod, cinnamon stick) and discard or repurpose them.

Step 8

Use your flavored sugar or Splenda in coffee, tea, baked goods, or as a topping for desserts.
