Notes
Use Pure Maple Syrup
Opt for 100% pure maple syrup rather than imitation versions. Pure maple syrup offers a rich, authentic flavor that complements the honey and cinnamon beautifully.
🍯 Choose the Right Honey
Select a high-quality honey to ensure a smooth texture and rich sweetness. Darker honeys, like buckwheat honey, can add a deeper flavor profile.
🌿 Experiment with Cinnamon Varieties
While ground cinnamon is commonly used, experimenting with different types, such as Ceylon or Saigon cinnamon, can offer subtle variations in flavor. Reddit
🔥 Serving Temperature

🧊 Storage Tips
Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. If it thickens upon chilling, gently reheat it to restore its original consistency.
