Ingredienser og erstatninger
Banana simple syrup is usually made from ripe bananas but this recipe reuse banana peels instead to make a delicious syrup with the added benefits of banana peels.
- Banana Peels – from ripe bananer for best flavors. It means peels with black dark spots on their skin. The riper the banana, the sweeter the banana syrup recipe will be.
- Rent rørsukker – or I also used unrefined cane sugar or coconut sugar for an earthy caramel flavor.
- Vaniljeekstrakt – for smakens skyld.
Why Making Recipes With Banana Peels?
Banana peels have a higher nutrition profile than bananas themselves. Whiles bananas have a lot of potassium, banana peels contain even more. Plus, they are high in vitamins B6 and vitamin B12, important vitamins on a vegan diet that most vegans buy as a supplement.
So to avoid requiring B12 supplements, use the banana peel to make banana recipes. You can use banana peels in smoothies, to make this banana simple syrup, or to make savory recipes like banana peel bacon.

Can this be canned for long term storage?
It store well in the fridge for a week, in a sealed glass mason jar. I am pretty sure you can preserve this syrup, using a canning method too.
Great recipe. I used it to coat toasted walnuts on top of a banana cake and I also used in place of honey in a batch of peanut butter and honey cookies.
Much cheaper than honey and adds something special.
1/2 what for the vanilla extract?
Teaspoon, sorry for that, the recipe has been updated. Enjoy!
Made this today, LOVE! In regards to storage, I know it says to do sterile mason jars, if I just put it in an old syrup bottle with a pump in it will it sit on the counter that way?
Yes it should last few days on the counter
I want to try this recipe but I have a question first. The recipe calls for vanilla extract but no where in the instructions does it mention what to do with it. I want to assume it’s added in after cooking while the syrup cools?
Yes that’s it, you add the vanilla extract after cooking, I updated the recipe. Enjoy.
