Servings: 1.25 cups
Calories: 176kcal
Equipment
- 1 large saucepan
- 1 stand mixer
Ingredients
- 2 cups pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Add the maple syrup to a large saucepan. It should hold at least 8 cups to allow room for the maple syrup to foam up.
- Heat the maple syrup over medium-low without stirring it, and simmer it until it reaches a temperature of 235℉. This will take at least 10 minutes. If it starts to foam up a lot, reduce the temperature to low.
- Once it reaches 235℉, remove it from the heat and set the saucepan in an ice bath for 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes, transfer the syrup to the bowl of a stand mixer, using a spatula to scrape out all of the maple syrup.
- Using the whisk attachment, whisk the maple syrup on medium speed for 5-10 minutes, until light in color and a thick but pourable consistency. Transfer to a jar and store in the fridge for up to 3 months.
Notes
Maple cream will thicken significantly in the fridge. Simply microwave for 5-10 seconds to bring it back to a pourable consistency.
