How to Make Chunky Apple Cinnamon Syrup

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup water, 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Whisk until well combined.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly to prevent sticking.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the syrup has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring frequently.
  4. Gently stir in 1 cup peeled and diced apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp recommended).
  5. Continue to simmer for another 5-7 minutes, or until the apples are tender.
  6. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
