Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon Orange zest
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh orange juice, orange zest, granulated sugar, and honey.
Step 2
Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk the mixture until the sugar dissolves completely.
Step 3
Add ground cardamom and a pinch of salt to the mixture, stirring until well incorporated.
Step 4
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the syrup thickens slightly.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the unsalted butter and vanilla extract until fully melted and combined.
Step 6
Let the syrup cool for 5 minutes, as it will thicken further as it cools.
Step 7
Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or french toast. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat gently before serving.
