This recipe does not have corn syrup which is good news for individuals who cannot tolerate it for whatever reason.

 

A key ingredient is molasses.  It thickens the syrup and makes it taste good.    

Adjust sugar to your liking (or use a sugar substitute).

WHAT IS MAPLE SYRUP?

According to ParkersMaple.com, real maple syrup is a straight-from-nature product made with a super simple process.  The sap is taken from a tapped maple tree and then boiled into a concentrated syrup. That simple!

Maple extract provides excellent flavoring in this recipe.  Imitation maple flavoring will also work.  It’s simply a matter of personal preference. 

Maple extract is a natural ingredient taken from maple syrup.

Imitation maple flavor is manufactured by mixing natural and chemical ingredients to obtain maple flavor without getting it from a maple tree.

The natural process is more involved than the artificial process, which is why maple extract is more expensive than imitation maple flavor.    Source:   www.leaf-tv
