Scale

Ingredients

1 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Combine Sugar and Water: In a medium saucepan, combine the water and granulated sugar over medium heat. Stir continuously until the sugar has completely dissolved, creating a clear syrup base.
Add Pumpkin and Spices: Add the pure pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice to the saucepan. Whisk the mixture thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated without lumps.
Simmer the Syrup: Continue cooking the syrup on medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Allow it to simmer gently for about 10 minutes to enhance and meld the flavors together.
Finish with Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract for added warmth and depth of flavor.
Strain the Syrup: For a smoother syrup, strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove any pumpkin solids, leaving a silky texture.
Cool and Store: Let the syrup cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, ready to brighten your autumn beverages and treats.

Notes

You can adjust the level of pumpkin pie spice according to your taste preference for a milder or stronger spice flavor.
Use fresh pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin puree, but avoid pumpkin pie filling which contains added spices and sweeteners.
This syrup pairs beautifully with coffee, lattes, teas, pancakes, waffles, or as a drizzle over desserts like ice cream or yogurt.
Store the syrup in the refrigerator and use within two weeks for optimal freshness.
Reheat slightly before use if the syrup thickens too much from refrigeration.
