How to Make Lavender Sugar With Vanilla

  1. Sterilize four jars.
  2. Divide 4 cups granulated sugar evenly among the four jars (1 cup per jar).
  3. Add 4 tablespoons of culinary lavender buds, divided evenly among the jars (1 tablespoon per jar).
  4. In one jar, add one whole vanilla bean, split lengthwise and scraped. Optionally, divide the vanilla bean among multiple jars.
  5. For lavender powdered sugar: Process one jar of lavender sugar mixture in a high-speed blender until the lavender is finely ground and the mixture resembles powdered sugar.
  6. Seal all jars tightly.
  7. Let the jars sit at room temperature for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully infuse. The longer it sits, the more intense the flavor will become!
  8. Once infused, use as desired in cakes, cookies, tea, frostings, glazes, salad dressings, or simply enjoy its wonderful aroma!
