Easy Toasted Pecan Brown Sugar Syrup

Course Drinks
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 9 minutes
Servings 1 cup

Equipment

  • 1 sauce pan

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup pecans
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup water

Instructions

  • Pour your pecans into a dry skillet. Turn on your stove to medium heat and stirring them constantly, toast the pecans for about 3 minutes. You know they're done when you can smell them.
  • Add in the brown sugar, stir them together
  • Carefully add in the water-it will steam and splutter because your pan is hot. This is ok.
  • Bring the mixture up to a simmer. It's done when the sugar is dissolved. You can feel with your spoon when the sugar is dissolved-it's no longer grainy. This should take about 3ish minutes, depending on how hot your pan is.
  • Strain the syrup into a clean jar-use a funnel if you have one-if you watch my video below you can see me spill hot syrup all over... Allow to cool and store in the fridge.
