How to Make Simple Strawberry Syrup For Pancakes

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the gelatin, cornstarch, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Gradually whisk in the water until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
  3. Add the sliced strawberries and gently mash them with a fork or potato masher to release their juices. Leave some larger pieces for texture if desired.
  4. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly.
  5. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to stir for 1-2 minutes, or until the syrup has thickened to your desired consistency. It should coat the back of a spoon.
  6. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely. This will allow it to thicken further.
  7. Transfer the cooled syrup to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
  8. Gently warm the syrup before serving over your pancakes, waffles, or ice cream.
