I know, you’re probably wondering “Why in the world would I ever need Peanut Butter Simple Syrup???”
Trust me, you’ll thank me in the next post! Most of you know to use simple syrups in drinks; i.e, mojitos. However simple syrups are not just for drinks.
Next time you make a cake, muffin, cookie, sweet bread or any dessert really, brush the top with a flavor simple syrup. It’s insanely good!
Making this stuff couldn’t be any easier…
Literally put the sugar and water in a pan. When the sugar is dissolved and it starts to bubble, add the peanut butter and cook until slightly thick.
Yeah.. THAT simple.

This looks amazing – going to try it next week to brush on my sons chocolate cake before frosting it.
You say a glass lidded jar . Do you mean the lid needs to glass as well as the jar?
Hi Jan,
No, I meant like a mason glass jar. Great question! I’ll clarify it in the post!

My grandmother, Lottie Vance Daniels, of Avery Co. N. C., made this for us. We put it on a hot, buttered, homemade biscuit. This was a real fine breakfast for us kids. All us girls knew the recipe, and have shared with our grands.
I’m curious how long it is good for.
I haven’t made, but it looks amazing! Would this work as a sauce over ice cream sundaes? A lot of recipes I found for pb sundae sauce used corn syrup or honey & I don’t like the taste of either.

Which brand of peanut butter do you use? I tried to make this today and solidified quickly. It still tastes good but not the effect I was going for!
