Strawberry Syrup

This syrup is a companion to our Overnight Strawberry French Toast Casserole recipe. It gives the recipe a little extra oomph. But, if you're short on time and can't make the entire casserole and syrup combo, the syrup alone is also a sure-fired way to jazz up regular pancakes or waffles too. Give it a try - I know you'll love it!


Strawberry Syrup

1 cup granulated sugar
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 cup water
2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries
1 Tbsp butter

  1. In a medium saucepan, mix the sugar, cornstarch, and water. Bring to a boil.
  2. Stirring constantly, cook 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Mix in the strawberries. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the butter.
  5. Serve over your favorite waffles, pancakes, French toast, or crepes. Alternately, this versatile sauce also makes a nice companion to desserts, so drizzle it over ice cream or cake and serve with a side of whipped cream.
