Description
This decadent sauce should be your new fall staple to drizzle over pie, stir into drinks, and dunk your apple slices in.From Epicurious.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups apple cider
- 1 vanilla bean, split & scraped
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup butter, cubed
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring apple cider to a boil. Add vanilla bean seeds scraped from pod and drop in the pod itself. {You’ll pull this out later.} Continue to boil until reduced by about half, about 12-15 minutes.
- Add brown sugar and butter and stir until melted in and well incorporated. Reduce heat to medium.
- Allow the mixture to continue to boil until the bubbling starts to slow down as the liquid becomes more thick and syrupy, about 7-10 more minutes. {You’ll have to keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn’t burn.} I didn’t use a candy thermometer for this, but you’ll want the mixture to be pourable but thickened — it will thicken some more after it cools.
- Carefully pour hot sauce into a heatproof container or jar and allow to cool before sealing and decorating.
