In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the water and erythritol. Stir frequently until the erythritol is fully dissolved.
Once the mixture starts to simmer, reduce the heat to low and add the apple extract and ground cinnamon. Stir to incorporate.
In a small bowl, mix the xanthan gum with a tablespoon of the hot mixture to create a slurry which will prevent clumping when added to the saucepan.
Add the xanthan gum slurry back into the saucepan and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes until the syrup begins to thicken.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the lemon juice and butter until the butter is completely melted and incorporated.
Allow the syrup to cool slightly. It will continue to thicken as it cools. Adjust sweetness and flavor with additional erythritol or apple extract if desired.
Transfer the syrup to a container or jar with a tight-fitting lid for storage. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Warm up slightly before serving for the best texture and flavor.
