Ingredients
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Powdered erythritol (or low-carb powdered sweetener of choice)
- 1 teaspoon Maple extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine the water and powdered erythritol. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the erythritol has dissolved completely (about 3-4 minutes).
Step 2
Stir in the maple extract, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk gently to combine.
Step 3
Add the butter to the saucepan. Allow it to melt completely, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Sprinkle the xanthan gum into the saucepan a little at a time, whisking constantly to prevent clumping.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and let the syrup simmer for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens slightly. Keep in mind that the syrup will continue to thicken as it cools.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the syrup cool for a few minutes before transferring it to a glass jar or bottle.
Step 7
Store the syrup in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before use, as the butter may solidify when chilled. Stir or shake well to recombine if needed.
