Pairing BrixStone Farms Maple Syrup with Seasonal Favorites

As the leaves turn and the air gets crisp in Northern Michigan, there's one flavor that captures the essence of fall like no other: maple syrup. At BrixStone Farms, our pure maple syrup is handcrafted in small batches, with every drop reflecting the care and tradition that defines our farm.

But maple syrup isn’t just for pancakes. Its rich, earthy sweetness pairs beautifully with a variety of fall dishes, both sweet and savory. Here are some of our favorite ways to enjoy BrixStone Farms maple syrup with the best of the season’s harvest.

Maple Roasted Root Vegetables

Drizzle maple syrup over carrots, parsnips, and sweet potatoes before roasting to bring out their natural sweetness. Add a pinch of sea salt and rosemary for a comforting side dish that pairs perfectly with roasted chicken or turkey.

Maple-Glazed Fall Squash

Acorn and butternut squash shine with a touch of maple syrup. Slice, bake, and glaze with a mixture of maple syrup, butter, and cinnamon for a warm, caramelized finish.

Warm Apple and Maple Crisp

Combine Northern Michigan apples with oats, brown sugar, and a generous pour of maple syrup for a rustic dessert that tastes like autumn in a bowl. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream.

Maple Syrup in Your Morning Coffee

A splash of maple syrup in your morning cup adds a smooth, natural sweetness without the need for processed sugar. It’s a simple way to bring a little BrixStone Farms warmth to your daily routine.

Savory Maple Marinades

Maple syrup makes an excellent base for marinades and glazes. Mix it with Dijon mustard, garlic, and apple cider vinegar to create a flavorful coating for pork tenderloin, salmon, or grilled vegetables.

Maple Butter for Fresh Bread

Blend maple syrup with softened butter and a pinch of cinnamon for a spread that elevates any fresh-baked bread or dinner roll. It’s a farm favorite during our family meals and events.
