Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup allulose
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup water (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, allulose, and salt until evenly mixed, ensuring there are no lumps for a smooth syrup.
- Add Water and Mix: Transfer the dry mixture to a small saucepan, add the room temperature water, and whisk thoroughly to combine all ingredients into a uniform slurry.
- Heat the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 1-2 minutes, stirring regularly to prevent burning and promote thickening.
- Add Vanilla Extract: Remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in the vanilla extract to infuse a rich aroma and enhance the flavor profile of the syrup.
- Cool and Refrigerate: Allow the syrup to cool completely to room temperature. Then transfer it to a shallow container or jar and refrigerate for at least an hour to let it thicken and develop the perfect syrupy consistency.
Notes
- Use allulose as a sugar substitute to keep the syrup sugar-free and lower in calories.
- The syrup will thicken further as it chills; if it becomes too thick, stir in a small amount of water to adjust consistency.
- Store the syrup in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
- Ideal for topping ice cream, pancakes, waffles, or mixing into milk for chocolate milk.
- Do not overcook the syrup to avoid bitterness from the cocoa powder.
