Buttermilk Syrup

Buttermilk Syrup

(15 servings)    Printable Version
  • 1 and 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup butter (or margarine)
  • 2 Tablespoons corn syrup
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
In a medium saucepan, bring all ingredients to a boil - except for the vanilla extract. Allow to boil gently for at least five minutes. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the vanilla.

Serve warm over pancakes and waffles.


This stored okay for a week in the refridgerator. I just popped it in the microwave for 20 seconds, stirred it and microwaved for another 20 seconds.

Mr Breakfast would like to thank KennyRogers for this recipe.

I made it and I liked it, but I'm wondering why use the baking soda. I couldn't taste it (maybe a good thing).

Really good if you substitute honey for the corn syrup. It is the best!

I agree with Steph that it has a warm caramel feel. Really good sometimes instead of the usual maple syrup.

I think this syrup is awesome! It is such a different fun way to syrup! The reason for the corn syrup is so that there isn't any crystallization of the sugar.

I've made buttermilk syrup before with a different recipe and I thought it was alot better. I think the difference was using corn syrup in this recipe. It tasted more like carmel syrup than buttermilk. I'd try it without the corn syrup.
