Everything you need to know to make homemade vanilla bean paste 😍 Only takes 5 minutes to make and can be used immediately!!

Ingredients:
•2 oz or about 23 whole vanilla bean pods* – I prefer beans from Madagascar (60g)
•1 cup granulated sugar (200g)
•3/4 cup 80 proof (40% ABV) vodka, rum, or bourbon (180g)
•1/3 cup water (80g)
•2 Tbsp light corn syrup (40g)
•1/4 tsp xanthan gum (optional) - helps thicken mixture

*The weight of a vanilla bean can vary a TON based on its quality, size, and moisture level. That’s why it’s much better to go by weight than by number of beans. I highly recommend using a scale to measure the ingredients when making vanilla bean paste.
