Did you know you can make your own vanilla at home? Well, yes, you can … and now it is the only vanilla I use.
Here’s all you need to do:
1 jar with a tight fitting lid
Several vanilla beans, the more the merrier
Unflavored vodka*
Put the vanilla beans in the jar and cover with the vodka.
Place the jar in a dark place and allow the vanilla beans to steep in the vodka for about a month.
That’s it! Cheers to some delicious baking!
*I’ve also seen this made with brandy but I prefer vodka because I always have it on hand!
