How to Make Cinnamon Sauce For Apple Pie

  1. Whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour in a small bowl until well combined.
  2. In a small saucepan, whisk the sugar mixture into 1 cup of milk until smooth.
  3. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens to a pourable consistency (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon. Whisk until the butter is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  5. Serve warm over your favorite apple pie, cobbler, or vanilla ice cream.

  7. When reheating in the microwave, use low power and stir frequently to prevent clumping.
