Save money, make your own vanilla extract! *CLICK SEE MORE FOR RECIPE*
Buying pure vanilla in the store is SO EXPENSIVE and when it's gone, it's gone. 💰💸
When you buy beans to make your own extract, you can keep that 'mother jar' going literally forever. ♾
Just top up your jar with more alcohol every so often to make sure the beans are still completely submerged!
VANILLA EXTRACT
(Double strength/Bakery strength)
Ingredients:
8 oz vanilla beans
4 cups rum or vodka
Directions:
1. Put beans in tall jar.
2. Add alcohol (must be between 80 proof and 100proof).
3. Put on your patient pants because it takes a while for the extract to become usable. Best to wait at least 6 - 12 months. (Just in time for holiday baking next year 😜)
