This recipe is originally from the Sweet Enough: A Dessert Cookbook by Alison Roman. We traded out the maple syrup and used our Pure Cane Syrup instead. It is a great recipe! 

Ingredients 

1 1/2 sticks unsalted buttere
2 tbsp freshly grated ginger or 1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 (15oz) can unsweetened pumpkin puree
2 large eggs
1 cup Blackberry Patch Pure Cane Syrup
3/4 cup light brown sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line 12 cups of a muffin tin with liners. 

2. In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat and cook, swirling occassionally until the butter is browned, foamy and smells like popcorn, 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in teh ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg. 

3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. 

4. In a large bowl, whisk the pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup, and a brown sugar until combined. Slowly whisk in the flour mixture until nearly no lumps remain, followed immediately by the browned butter mixture, whisking until no lumps remain (the batter should be smooth and thick, but do not overmix). This is important - ours sank a little bit in the middle after baking - we think because we overmixed. 

5. Pour into the prepared cake pan(s) or loaf pan, smoothing the top. Or divide among the muffin cups. Bake until golden brown on top, 20-25 minutes for muffins. Let cook entirely before frosting. 

6. We lightly frosted with a cream cheese frosting with a little bit of cane syrup mixed in. 

This recipe was pulled right from the Delish Fall Baking Magazine - it has given us endless inspiration this season. We did replace their molasses with our Cane Syrup.

1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp granulated sugar, divided
2 tsp ground cinnamon, divided
1 1/4 tsp ground ginger, divided

3. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, butter and cane syrup. Pour egg mixture into dry ingredients and mix a few times until just incorporated. Add coffee and milk and continue to mix until no dry streaks remain; it is ok if there are small lumps. 

4. Pour batter into prepared pan; smooth top with an offset spatula. 

5. Bake pancake until golden brown and firm to the touch, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes. 

6. Meanwhile, in a large bowl of stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat cream and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar on medium-high speed until medium peaks form. 

7. Cut pancake into 16 pieces and dollop with whipped cream. Drizzle with cane syrup and enjoy! 

1 box Puff Pastry
Blackberry Patch Pumpkin Spice Syrup
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

2. Cut puff pastry into rounds using a cookie cutter or biscuit cutter. 

3. Pour Pumpkin Spice Syrup in the middle of the pastry and top with a second round of pastry. 

4. Place on a cookie sheet and bake until "puffed" and golden brown, about 20 minutes. 

5. Mix powdered sugar and Pumpkin spice Syrup together until you have a glaze consistency - it doesn't take much syrup - add a little at a time. Drizzle over cronuts.  

6. Finish with powdered sugar if desired! 

This recipe is derived from Delish Magazine's Apple Cider Whoopie Pies. Rather than reducing apple cider down to a syrup, we switched in our Apple Butter Syrup. The result is a delicious combo of fall flavors that fill your home as you bake. 

Cookies
3/4 cup Blackberry Patch Apple Butter Syrup
2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp finely grated orange zest
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
 3/4 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp ground cloves
2 large eggs
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tbsp unsalted buttere, melted
1/3 cup cinnamon sugar

Icing
4 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
4 tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Blackberry Patch Apple Butter Syrup

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Ina large bowl, which together flour, orange zest, cinnamon, baking powder, ginger, baking soda, nutmeg, salt and cloves until combined. 

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, Apple Butter Syrup, brown sugar, oil, granulated sugar and vanilla. 

3. Add egg mixture to dry ingredients and stir until combined. The consistency should feel like a thick cake batter. You want it thinner than most cookie doughs, so that it creates that nice smooth top recognizable as a whoopie pie! Ours was a little thick and you can see that our cookies didn't quite smooth out. 

4. Using a medium scoop (about 2 tbsp), scoop dough on baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Bake cookies until springy to the touch, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. 

5. Brush tops of cookies with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. 

6. While cookies cool, make the filling. In a large bowl, using a handheld mixer on medium high speed, beat cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla and beat until smooth and fluffy. Scrape into a pastry bag. 

7. Turn cookies round side down. Pipe filing into thee center of half of the cookies. 

8. Pour Apple Butter Syrup onto the center of the other half of the cookies and sandwich together. It's okay if your syrup spills over the edges here. Cover and refrigerate at last 1 hour and up to 3 days. 

CAUTION - this dip is addicting! Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, mayo and green onions create a creamy and delicious dip that becomes crave worth when topped with our Raspberry Pepper Preserves for Cheese!  

Ingredients
1/2 cup mayonnaise
8oz cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 whole green onions sliced thin 
1/2 cup Blackberry Patch Raspberry Pepper Preserves for Cheese
Ritz Crackers

Once, the cream cheese has softened, mix together mayonnaise, cream cheese, cheddar cheese and green onions. Place in an 8-9 inch pie dish. Cook at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes or until heated through - ours began to make cheesy bubbles on top and take on a slightly golden color in a few spots and that's how we knew it was done! Once out of the oven top with Raspberry Pepper Preserves for cheese and dig in with some Ritz Crackers!

This recipe is a take on Captain Rodney's Dip found HERE

Paired with pigs in a blanket, this recipe is perfect for family gatherings or tailgates! We thought we'd try an extra southern take on honey mustard - trying it with cane syrup instead of honey! Mustard is a strong flavor, so this is subtle, but just enough to leave people guessing what makes it special! 

Ingredients
Mustard
Blackberry Patch Cane Syrup

Start with a quarter cup of mustard and add tablespoons of cane syrup until you get your desired taste. Some people will want it sweeter - some will want it more tart. 

We tried our own take on bbq/grape jelly crock pot meatballs using our Muscadine Jelly and it did not disappoint. The prep time is less than 5 minutes and it makes enough for a crowd! Here's a perk - this jelly only has fruit, cane sugar and lemon juice - simple ingredients! 

Ingredients
30 meatballs (we used two small frozen bags - NOTE - you do not want Italian Style)
14oz BBQ Sauce (use your favorite - we used Sweet Baby Rays Original)
10oz Blackberry Patch Muscadine Jelly

Mix your BBQ Sauce and Muscadine Jelly together in your crockpot. Add the meatballs and put the lid on. Cook on low for 4 hours or until meatballs reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees. 

1.5 oz lemon juice
1 oz egg white (approximately one egg)
1 tbsp Blackberry Patch Mayhaw Jelly
2 oz your favorite gin

1. Add all ingredient to a shaker (no ice) and shake vigorously for 15. Check to make sure the jelly has dissolved. If not, mix some more. 

2. Add ice to the shaker and shake for another 15 seconds. 

3. Strain into an ice field glass and serve. 

2 tbsp Blackberry Patch Mayhaw Jelly
1 part lemon or orange juice
3 parts prosecco
2 parts Aperol
1 part sparkling water

1. In a cocktail shaker, combine lemon/orange juice and Mayhaw Jelly and shake vigorously to dissolve the jelly. 

2. In a large wine glass, pour in the mayhaw mixture and add a scoop of ice. 

3. Pour in the prosecco, Aperol and top with sparkling water and enjoy immediately! 

This Mayhaw Pecan Pie recipe comes from food.com.

2 tbsp butter
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans (Our favorite are Schermer Pecans)
1 pie crust, unbaked

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a pie plate with pie crust. 

2. Stir sugar, jelly, and butter together over low heat until sugar is dissolved. 

3. Gradually add warm mixture to beaten eggs; add vanilla. 

4. Add chopped pecans and pour into pie shell. 

5. Bake for 30 minutes. 

6. Cool before serving. 

Biscuits (We love Callie's Biscuits)
Mayhaw Jelly Glazed Ham
Blackberry Patch Mayhaw Jelly

For this recipe, we glazed a ham with Mayhaw Jelly. 

1. Cook ham according to package instructions. For the last hour glaze your ham every 15 minutes with Mayhaw Jelly that you have warmed up, so that it is a consistency you can easily brush on. 

2. Once ham is cooked and resting, make biscuits. We love a good homemade biscuit, but have found that Callie's biscuits really shorten the time and are just as good as homemade. For this recipe, we tried Buttermilk Biscuits and Sharp Cheddar Biscuits and the cheddar biscuits stole the show.

3. Layer sliced ham and Mayhaw Jelly in your biscuit and enjoy! 

This recipes comes from the cookbook Cake Ladies - Celebrating a Southern Tradition. We added the Blueberry Syrup filling. The recipe for the cake is pretty involved, but delicious. If you are pressed for time, you could also use a yellow cake mix - just make enough for all three layers! 

For the cake

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs, separated and at room temperature
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup whole milk, at room temperature
1/2 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1/4 cup heavy cream, at room temperature
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract

1. Beat the butter, shortening and sugar together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light an fluffy, stopping the mixer twice during mixing and scraping down the paddle, bottom and sides of the bowl. 

2. Add the egg yolks to the mixture one at a time, scraping the bowl after each addition.  Beat until the egg yolks into the creamed mixture for 5 minutes, until they are fully incorporated and the entire mixture is light in color and texture. 

3. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt into a separate bowl and set aside. In another bowl, combine the milk, buttermilk, cream and vanilla. 

4. Combine the dry and wet ingredients with the creamed mixture. Alternate dry and wet ingredients - ending with dry. Blend until the ingredients are fully incorporated. 

5. Using the whisk attachment on the stand mixer, whip the egg whites in a clean bowl until they hold a stiff peak. Use a spatula to gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cake batter in three parts. 

6. Pour the batter evenly into three prepared pans and bake for 22 to 26 minutes or until a knife inserted comes out clean and the sides of the cake have pulled away from the pan. Allow the cakes to cool for 20 minutes before removing from the pan and set on a wire rack to finish cooling. 

You can use the following recipe for the lemon curd, but we always like to offer easier/quicker solutions as well. We have been known to buy a couple jars of lemon curd from the grocery store and put it right on the cake. 

For the lemon curd

3 fresh lemons
6 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
2 sticks (1cup) unsalted butter

1. Zest 3 lemons. Slice and juice the lemons, straining out seeds or pulp and retaining the juice. 

2. Fill the bottom of a double boiler one-third of the way with water and bring to a boil on medium heat on the stovetop. 

3. Place the juice and zest in the top of the double boiler, along with all the remaining ingredients and set over the boiling water. Stir frequently until the mixture is thick enough to cling to the spoon, 15 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a clean bowl and set aside to cool completely. 

To assemble the cake

Trim any uneven areas from the top of the cake layers. Place the first layer on a plate and cover the top in 3 Ingredient Blueberry Syrup. Repeat with the second layer. Use a lot of syrup to get plenty of blueberry flavor that holds up against the tart lemon curd. Once all three layers are stacked, cover the top and sides with lemon curd. 

Leave the cake at room temperature to set. Once set, the cake is ready to serve and will keep, covered and refrigerated, for up to a week.
