3 sugar syrup recipes

Maple syrup and brown sugar banana bread: a deeply sweet quick bread with both real maple syrup and packed brown sugar layered into the batter. Moist, fragrant, and finished with a snowfall of powdered sugar.

Chocolate cake with coffee syrup: a moist, fine-crumbed chocolate butter cake with cocoa bloomed in boiling water, brushed with a Kahlua-spiked sugar syrup that deepens the chocolate. Bakery-quality at home.

Maple syrup and brown sugar pie with a buttery crumb topping. Old Quebec-style dessert with a gooey molten filling and a nutmeg-warmed streusel cap.
