In the Flint family it seems like it is a tradition whenever you have french toast you have to smoother them in white sauce. Jeff loves his white sauce, but I found this syrup recipe on one of the food blogs ( Sisters Cafe ) and I am now addicted to it... It is going on all of our breakfeast plates that need syrup now.
I am still working hard on convincing Jeff, he may be a white sauce on french toast till his dying day but I love this syrup. To humor me he did say "It's the best homemade syrup I have ever had" then he put maple syrup all over his waffles.
If you want to experiment I am sure you can change the flavor of the extract and make it your favorite flavors... Let me know if you do and what you tried and how it worked!
Coconut Syrup
7 - 8 T Butter
3/4 C Buttermilk
1 C Sugar
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Coconut Extract
Place butter, buttermilk and sugar in saucepan. Then turn on stove on medium and stir until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Bring to boil for one minute. Remove from heat add soda and flavoring. It will bubble up; just continue to stir and give it a few minutes for the fizz to reduce before serving.
Enjoy!!!!

The way we have been making the white sauce for breakfeast is just sugar, flour, water, lemon juice, margerine and vanilla.
Good luck getting Jeff to give up his White Sauce Syrup. Russ will never change and the kids won't either. They won't even eat French Toast unless we have it with White Sauce.
Thats ok me and Gabe have seen the light and been converted!
By the way, Russ clarified that it is called "Vanilla Sauce" not White sauce. So basically not only are the Flints picky about the sauce itself, but also about what it is called.
Eeeewww! I grew up on that vanilla white sauce too, and I HATED it! Must be a "Love" thing. YUCK!
Thank you Megan! I hate that sauce to, there is no flavor to it, I dont understand the connection to it
