Make the Most of Your Maple Syrup

Maple syrup and pancakes may go hand in hand, but there’s an entire world of baked goods where this liquid gold really shines. Choose recipes that use it as the main sweetener instead of sugar, and you’ll be delighted by the aroma it lends to loaves of hearty oatmeal bread and silky smooth custard pie filling. Incorporate maple into a rum-spiked glaze for a sophisticated take on pound cake or use it to give your bacon-filled scones the perfect salty-sweet edge. Here are our favorite recipes that make the most of every bottle.
