Peanut Butter Syrup

Last weekend the young women at church had a pancake breakfast fundraiser for girls' camp this summer.  We had quite the assortment of gourmet syrups and toppings.  This recipe was one of the biggest hits.  Most of my kids just put peanut butter on their pancakes anyway--so this was their favorite.  Our friend MaryAnn was more than willing to share her yummy recipe.

Peanut Butter Syrup
2 cups sugar (**half brown sugar and half white sugar is o.k. and even better if just making plain maple syrup)
1 cup water
1 tsp. maple extract

Combine above in a saucepan. 
Stir occasionally and bring to a boil. 
(This maple syrup is great on pancakes and waffles as is.)

Add 1 cup creamy peanut butter (MaryAnn uses Jif). ***I tried it with Peter Pan and the syrup separated.
Stir with a whisk until combined. 
Serve warm. (way better warm than not)

Enjoy your breakfast!
We sure have with this delicious syrup.
