  • For a richer flavor, use real butter instead of margarine.
  • For a stronger maple flavor, add more maple flavoring.

  • Substitute honey for the brown sugar - This will provide a slightly different flavor profile to the syrup while still providing the same sweetness as the brown sugar.
  • Substitute coconut oil for the butter or margarine - Coconut oil is a healthier choice than butter or margarine and it will still provide the same flavor and texture to the syrup.
