Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Combine water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir gently with a whisk until the sugar starts to dissolve, about 2-3 minutes.
- Once the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is gently simmering, sprinkle in the pumpkin pie spice. Whisk continuously for about 30 seconds to ensure there are no lumps.
- Reduce heat to low and let the syrup gently simmer for 5-7 minutes. Do not let it boil vigorously. Stir occasionally to prevent the spice from settling.
- Remove from heat and let the syrup cool for 10-15 minutes. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Optional: Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a glass jar for a perfectly smooth syrup.
- Seal the jar and let it cool completely before refrigerating. Shake well before each use.
Notes
For a richer flavor, let the syrup sit overnight before using. If the syrup crystallizes, add a tablespoon of water and gently reheat, stirring until crystals dissolve. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
