Ingredients

8 ounces hulled strawberries fresh or frozen
½ cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup honey or pure maple syrup

Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine 8 ounces hulled strawberries with ½ cup water and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract over medium heat. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, until berries begin to soften.
Using a fork, mash the berries until no large chunks remain. Continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes, until the liquid has thickened.
Lastly, stir in ¼ cup honey. Stir until evenly combined. Remove saucepan from heat and set aside to cool.
Using a fine mesh sieve, strain the syrup into a glass bowl or container. Use the fork to continue mashing and stirring the berries to get as much juice out as possible. If you like a chunkier texture to the syrup, you can scoop about one tablespoon of the mashed berries into the container as well. Seal the container and refrigerate until ready to serve. The syrup should keep for up to 1 week when sealed and refrigerated.
