Description

This family-friendly vanilla glaze with a maple tint is perfect for adding a bakery-quality finish to homemade cinnamon rolls and other favorite treats. It comes together in mere minutes using pantry staples, delivering amazing flavor and a creamy consistency.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups powdered sugar (confectioners’ sugar)
  • 2–4 tablespoons milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1–2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
  • 0.125 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Sift the Sugar: In a medium bowl, sift 2 cups of powdered sugar to remove lumps and ensure a super smooth glaze.
  2. Add Flavor: Stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract and 1-2 teaspoons pure maple syrup, noting the sweet, earthy aroma.
  3. Whisk in Liquid: Gradually add milk (starting with 2 tablespoons), whisking continuously until smooth and pourable. Aim for a thick, flowing consistency that coats the back of a spoon.
  4. Check Consistency: If the glaze is too thick, add more milk 0.5 teaspoon at a time, whisking well. If it’s too thin, whisk in another tablespoon of sifted powdered sugar until thickened.

Notes

Always choose pure vanilla extract over imitation and real maple syrup, not pancake syrup, for the best flavor. This recipe is customizable for dairy-free (use unsweetened almond or oat milk) or low-carb diets (use erythritol-based powdered sugar alternative). If icing is clumpy, sift the sugar.
