Simple Pancake Syrup
3 cups granulated sugar1½ cups water
1 tsp maple extract of maple flavoring
Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil stirring frequently. Pour over pancakes, and enjoy immediately, or cool and store for later use.
Some people prefer a little vanilla extract, butter flavoring, and/or molasses added to the recipe to make a more complex flavor of syrup. If you don't like maple flavor in the first place, you can use another flavor instead: vanilla, almond, and raspberry all work well.
Someday I am going to try this tip about saving water from boiling potatoes to make the syrup thicker and richer. I hate throwing anything remotely useful away too, I think I inherited that from my dad.
