Rhubarb Syrup For Pancakes Recipe

Low-Carb, Gluten-Free, Paleo Optional, Primal, Vegan, Nut-Free

This low-carb Rhubarb Syrup for Pancakes is as delicious as it is pretty. Make sure you choose rhubarb that is red rather than green. There really isn’t much of a taste difference, but red rhubarb makes a much prettier sauce. You will also want to discard the leaves as they can be poisonous. Now for my secret. If you make a thinner consistency syrup, you can also use it salad dressings, cocktails, and more. A thicker syrup also makes a great topping for low-carb ice cream.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

INGREDIENTS

PREPARATION AND INSTRUCTIONS
Boil the chopped rhubarb and water until the rhubarb is very soft. Strain.

Combine 1 cup of the juice with the Swerve sweetener and bring to boil, then simmer over low heat to allow it to thicken. You may add 1/2-1 teaspoon of Thick it Up if you prefer a thicker consistency.

CarbSmart Podcast Episode 23: Refusing Holiday Food and Staying Low-Carb can be tough at first but you can do it to avoid the Food Pushers. The holidays are straight ahead, and with them piles and piles of carby junk, and worse, people nagging you to eat the stuff. Why so many people think that saying things like "But you have to eat it! It's traditional!" and "I worked all afternoon making it just for you" constitutes an expression of holiday goodwill, I have no idea, but sadly this behavior is all too common. You need to think ahead about how to respond to this sort of thing.
