Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 medium ripe banana mashed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon banana extract optional, for extra banana flavor

Method
 

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine water, sugar, mashed banana, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and banana extract if using. Let the syrup cool for 5 minutes.
  4. Pour the syrup through a fine mesh strainer into a clean glass jar or bottle, pressing on the banana solids to extract all the liquid. Discard the solids.
  5. Allow the syrup to cool completely to room temperature. The syrup will thicken slightly as it cools.
  6. Add 1-2 tablespoons of banana bread syrup to your favorite latte, coffee, or milk drink. Stir well and enjoy the warm banana bread flavors.
  7. Store the syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Shake well before each use.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for the best banana bread flavor. The syrup will separate slightly when stored, so shake well before using. For a stronger spice flavor, increase the cinnamon to 3/4 teaspoon. This syrup also works wonderfully in iced coffee, smoothies, or drizzled over pancakes and oatmeal.
