BUTTERMILK SYRUP
1/2 c butter
1 c sugar
2/3 c buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking soda

Mix butter, sugar, and buttermilk together and 2 full minutes. Remove from heat. Add vanilla and baking soda. Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or French toast. Makes 2 cups of syrup. (In a pinch you can use 2/3 c milk with 1 TBSP vinegar and let sit for a few minutes or you can use 2/3 c milk and 3 TBSP buttermilk powder. The syrup may not be quite as thick but still very flavorful and delicious.)
