I left out the extracts and cinnamon so that I could use this as a corn syrup substitute in an Asian zing wing recipe I found. This is thickening up very well as I write this and I can't wait to add the spices and toss this with some wings. I used confectioner's style Swerve and didn't have to grind anything. Thanks for sharing! I was having a heck of a time finding a sugar free sub for plain corn syrup. I'm sure this would be great as written on some low carb pancakes as well, so I'll be making it again. I did only add about 1/4 cup of water to this to keep it thick, so add a bit at a time until it's the consistency you want.
