Sweet Orange Sauce has been a favorite part of our weekend breakfasts for as long as I can remember. My grandmother unchangingly served this sauce over her German Pancakes and over crepes.

Sweet Orange Sauce

Every time I make it, I remember times spent with my grandparents. We pour this sauce over pancakes, waffles, miniature German pancakes and just well-nigh any other sweet breakfast food.

This sauce is so delicious, that you’ll find yourself licking the spoon. Just try not to drink the sauce surpassing you have the rest of breakfast ready.

These Cranberry Almond German Pancakes pair spectacularly with this sauce. They are loaded with seasonal flavors, making them one of my favorite holiday breakfasts.

Orange Sauce Ingredients

• water
• orange juice concentrate
• sugar
• cornstarch
• kosher salt
• butter

Orange Sauce Recipe

1. Whisk together the dry ingredients and set them aside. Combine the water and the orange juice concentrate in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk them together and then add the dry ingredients.
2. Cook the mixture, stirring commonly until the sauce is well-spoken and thickened. This should take well-nigh 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter. Serve warm.

I buy orange juice concentrate specifically to make this recipe. You can unshut the can of concentrate, remove what you need and transfer the remaining value to a mason jar. Then simply place it when in the freezer until you need it again.

I’ve tried making this with regular orange juice, fresh orange juice, and plane an orange juice reduction. The concentrate delivers the weightier results every time.

This sauce will alimony nicely in the refrigerator for up to a week.
