I searched several recipes for maple butter and thankfully came across yours! Some others made it much more complicated but yours is simple and delicious! I made this yesterday and enjoyed it this morning with some crumpets....fantastic!! I am now a subscriber.
@@AS-ip8wm oh I’m sorry! Sometimes RU-vid doesn’t show me replies to comments!! Hope you made and enjoyed the brownies!! I could go for one right now 🤣😻
Haha! Absolutely! By the way, congratulations on reaching 10K subscribers!! That's amazing! A huge achievement and very much deserved! Are you doing anything to celebrate the milestone? ✨🙌😻
@@BlackCatKitchen thank you so much! I was very excited about that! I 'm going to do a celebration video in a couple weeks, and finally launch my merch store! I haven't posted about reaching 10k yet, because I'm only a couple subs above it. And my sub count keeps going down as well as up every day ... I want to make sure I'm definitely above 10K before I say anything! Lol
You’ll end up with about the same amount or just slightly less in volume, because even though you reduce the syrup, when you whip the air into it, it fluffs it up! Let me know how it goes!! That’s a lot of yummy maple butter to eat!! 😻
I tried making this using my hand mixer. It seemed fine but after I put it in the refrigerator the next day it seemed to have separated. What did i do wrong? And yes i did use real maple syrup. Any ideas?😊
There could be a few reasons! Some syrup has a higher water content (that’s why we reduce it at the start). Or it may have still been too warm when whipped… either way, let it come up to room temperature and give it a good stir - it’ll come back together and still be really delicious!! 😻😻
It's not something I've experienced myself, but I believe the maple butter can become overwhipped if mixed for too long, and as you've said, it's likely to become a bit lumpy! I'm really glad you like the taste! And hopefully when you spread it on something warm, it'll melt a bit and become smoother! 💖😻
Hmmm, interesting. I can’t imagine it wouldn’t work, as long as the syrup was cooked down to the right consistency first. The sugars should react in the same way. I’ll try to test it out, but if you get to it first, let me know!! 😻
Looks so delicious. I love it! Your videos are very creative. What a splendid creator you’re!! Truly love very much your channel. The effort you put into a single video is unmatchable. Keep doing your best !❤ ❤ 😍
Maaan... i put it in the fridge to cool off but was too stiff, so I put it on the stove top for like 2 min to make it soft but then once I started stirring everything dried up and it became crumbles... i wasted all of my maple syrup
If you refrigerate this maple butter, it will become fairly solid, a bit like a traditional butter. If you want to soften it, leave it out of the fridge to come up to room temperature. It'll spread more easily then! However, by heating it, the maple syrup will crystallize into bits and lumps! I hope you'll give this recipe a second try! 💖😻
You'd have to cut it with cream cheese, butter or maybe even whipped cream to use it as a cake filling. The maple butter is just too sweet by itself! Have a lovely weekend, Val! Thanks for watching!! 💖😻
Oh, this would be one intense workout with a spoon! 😹 It is possible to make this by hand, but if you have a stand mixer, I'd definitely recommend using that! Thanks so much for watching!! 💖😻
We make our own maple syrup every spring. I tried this yesterday. I followed your directions, I whipped it the amount of time you said it should be whipped for. It did not end up being very thick, even after refrigerated it. I boiled it to 232F degrees. I will try to do it again with a new small batch of our maple syrup and see if it was just back luck! I would love to have maple butter! Sounds wonderful for me who is French Canadian!
I must admit, I've tried making this with fresh maple syrup! Next time you make it, test not only the temperature of the syrup, but also do the drop test in the water as shown in the video and make sure it's at a thread stage, or slightly thicker. Then make sure the cooked down syrup has cooled completely before trying to whip it. Prior to whipping, once it's been cooled, it should be very thick in your bowl. Bonne chance! 💖😻
Normally, crystallisation happens if you've heated the mixture too quickly, or you've stirred it to the point where the syrup has gone up the sides of the pan too much, or you've used a metal implement. On the bright side, if you haven't thrown it away, you could crush it up and sprinkle it over coffee, desserts or cookies and it'll be lovely!! I hope you'll give this recipe another try! Let me know if any of the above might explain why it crystallised, and if still run into issues, let me know and I'll do my best to help! 💖😻
Where's the pancakes and Blueberry compote to go with this delicious looking Maple Butter. Could you use the maple butter as a frosting? Cheers Daniella 👍🤤😀
It's pancake day next month and this would be perfect accompaniment! I'll be spreading some on my pancakes this year!! Unfortunately though, it wouldn't make for a good frosting. It's just too sweet! I hope you have a lovely weekend, John! Are you doing anything nice? 💖😻
@@BlackCatKitchen Yeah I thought it'd be too sweet. Anything nice Cooking wise? No. Eating leftovers atm. Grilled Lamb loin chops Sunday dinner. I'll bake either sheet pan eggs or egg muffins for my work morning tea for next week. That's about it. I hope you have a lovely weekend too..😻
