Ingredients
  

For the Glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar Using organic powdered sugar enhances the glaze's taste.

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract Feel free to omit it for a purer maple flavor.
  • a pinch salt A little goes a long way!

Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy Maple Glaze

  2. Next, pour in 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup into the bowl with the sifted sugar.
  3. Now, add 1 tablespoon of milk (any kind) to the mixture.
  4. For an optional flavor boost, add ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  5. Toss in a pinch of salt to your bowl.
  6. Using a whisk, vigorously mix all the ingredients together until the maple glaze is completely smooth.
