🍎 Elderberry Apple Caramel Dipping Sauce
Ingredients:
- ½ cup coconut sugar (or maple sugar for a lighter flavor)
- ¼ cup butter (grass-fed preferred)
- ¼ cup heavy cream (or raw cream/milk)
- 2 tablespoons elderberry syrup OR 2 tablespoons dried elderberry pomace simmered in ¼ cup water, strained
- Pinch of sea salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
- In a small saucepan, melt butter and sugar over medium heat, stirring until bubbly.
- Slowly whisk in the cream until smooth and thickened (3–4 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in elderberry syrup/pomace extract, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
- Serve warm in a little crock alongside apple slices or scones.
✨ Pairing: This sauce turns simple apple slices into a treat that feels like caramel-dipped fair food — but with elderberry’s immune-supporting twist.
