Sugar-free Keto Maple Syrup

Great recipe – I’m always looking for new ideas and love the idea of making my own syrup!

So easy to make and so delicious! Definitely beats store bought!

Hi, I was going to use my pyure sweetener but powder it in the blender, do you think that will work for this syrup? Someone said in the comments that their syrup crystallized, how do I avoid that? Thank you so much for your help. It is expensive to try recipes! By the way I am loving seeing all your yummy looking vegetable recipes and I can’t wait to make your strawberry jam recipe.

I started making keto bricks. I would like to incorporate a maple flavor into the bricks. Do you think it would be best to make the syrup or could I just use the maple flavoring? Thanks

Can I replace the erythritol with xylitol ?

I used your recipe as a template, added brown sweetener instead of regular erythritol and also added a small pat of butter. It tastes far better than maple syrup – not as sweet, and you can control the maple flavour by the amount you put it. It’s a winner, and so easy to make! No need to buy keto maple syrup again. Thanks for the recipe!

I bought the one you make and it was amazing!!!!! Just a question can it be store outside the fridge?

Just made this. So simple. I had everything I needed and in under 10 min it was done. I do NOT like real maple syrup and always bought the crappiest stuff on the shelf to use on my pancakes. (The cheaper the better because it had less maple flavor). Well this recipe is perfect for me. I have he maple extract and can add as little as I need so that I don’t get over-mapled, lol. I did follow this recipe exactly and from what I was able to taste it was good for me. I can’t wait for it to chill and have it with my breakfast tomorrow. Thank you for another easy and great recipe.

J’aime vraiment beaucoup ce sirop. Recette facile à faire, je l’utilise avec la recette de crêpes elles sont vraiment très très bonne. Merci bcp pour toutes les belles recettes que vous partagez avec nous. J’ai votre livre de recette et je l’adore. 🙂

I used 1/2 cup of swerve powder sugar, the full amount of xanthan gum. I used mccormick maple extract and the color is light tan. the taste is good. I forgot to simmer, and the texture is thinner than I would like. I am hoping the texture might thicken once it completely cools off.

Just tried this recipe and absolutely love it! I almost didn’t try it because it was “too simple”. I am glad I did. It was perfect on my keto pancakes. Thanks for this recipe!

I found adding 1/4 or so cup oil (margarine or butter) adds greatly to the taste and smooths out the consistency to be more syrup-like (though it’s no longer calorie-free). I also found this recipe a bit on the sweet-side, but another 1/2 tbsp maple extract balanced the flavor nicely for me.

Can I replace xanthum gum for guar gum?

Can I use anything else to thicken the maple syrup, other than xanthine gum?

Thank you so much for this awesome-sounding recipe. But in the “body” of this page, you state to add the Xanthun gum while continuing to whisk on the stove. But in the recipe itself you state to add the pre-gum mixture to a blender and then add it. Does it make a difference which of those two ways we choose to do it?

I have to say If I rated your syrup recipe I would only give it a 2 star and only because I understood and liked your concept of a keto friendly, low carb syrup Even through the overpowering Erythritol aftertaste and overly heavy sweetness, I loved the maple flavor. What I couldn’t get past was the texture and thickness of the syrup. It was literally like pouring pudding. I started over .
This time I powdered swerve, used half the amount called for in the recipe and cut the xanthum gum powder In half as well. Huge improvement. Still very sweet, not overwhelming, but still WAY thicker than a good pourable syrup. Started over. Cut the xanthan gum to 1/8 tsp and what do ya know, a real syrup consistency. Slightly thicker than say, pouring Mrs Butterworth’s and because I made this syrup for the keto diet and to put on your wonderful almond flour pancakes, I decided to add 1 TBSP of ghee to the syrup rather than my pancakes and oh my gosh, my own Mrs B’s without the guilt.
I appreciate all the time and effort you have put into the wonderful recipes that you publish and that I have enjoyed cooking. It has Greatly Helped make my keto diet tasty and successful. Thank you.

Very tasty. I only had maple flavoring with both natural and artificial flavors. I added a bit more to boost the flavor. Used with 0net carb (Aldi) bread/french toast. A nice Sunday breakfast on a very cold Chicago morning.
