I have had vanilla sugar in my cupboard for awhile now and it's great to have on hand if you want to add a bit of something extra! I put it on my cereal in the morning.

3 3/4 cups of sugar (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3 3/4 cups sugar
2 vanilla beans

Directions

1
Fill a glass canning jar with the sugar and vanilla beans which have been cut into thirds After a week, you will have infused sugar that can be used in the place of sugar in cakes, pies, anything sweet!

Love it! I bake for a living and this is the perfect touch for some products. If I need a finer grain of sugar I just run it through the food processor to make more of a super-fine sugar.

I bought vanilla beans (Tahitian and Madacascar) on Ebay and made extract and all kinds of goodies with them... I found that if I use the beans for a recipe and am left with the pod, I just throw it into a glass sugar dispenser and add sugar to it as it runs low... perfect vanilla sugar for any use!!! It's not overly strong, so it's great in any recipe that calls for a little bit of sugar... Thanks for sharing!!!

I have been intrigued by vanilla sugar and have needed it but never purchased or used it. This method worked great. I'm looking forward to trying this in a meringue or even oatmeal. Thanks for posting.

This is excellent! I bought a bunch of vanilla beans off e-Bay and wanted to try making vanilla sugar. I doubled the recipe and used two Madagascar/Bourbon vanilla beans and two Tahitian vanilla beans. I shook the jar every day just to mix it up, the week it takes to infuse is definitely worth it!
