When I wasn’t pleased with the chemicals (or price) of any of the sugar-free maple syrups I decided to make my own!
Hope you can enjoy this with your family! No chemicals or hidden ingredients and it’s inexpensive and oh so easy!

Once you see how easy it is, you’ll want to whip up some pancakes, waffles, or egg loaf and drizzle this right on top!
Low Carb Homemade Maple Syrup
Once you see how easy this recipe is to make, you'll want to whip up some pancakes, waffles, or egg loaf and drizzle this maple syrup right on top!
Equipment
- Small sauce pan
- Whisk
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup Water
- 3 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 tsp Maple Extract I ordered from Amazon – Olive Nation brand
- 1/2 cup Powdered sweetener I used Swerve
- 1 stick Salted butter
- 10 drops liquid sweetener Optional
Instructions
- Melt butter in small saucepan over medium-low heat. (don't allow it to boil).
- Once melted, whisk in water and powdered sweetener. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Add in extracts and liquid sweetener.
- Let simmer for about 5 minutes, mixing occasionally.
- Serve warm! This syrup will thicken as it cools. Enjoy!
Notes
Note: Can store in a fridge if not using immediately (or if you have any leftovers). It will crystallize, so microwave and mixing again will be necessary before using it! It works best to use an immersion blender or to throw it in a blender after microwaving it.
