Ingredients

Scale

5 vanilla beans

3 pounds granulated sugar


Instructions

Add sugar to the blender {or a large bowl}. Scrape the vanilla bean paste from the vanilla pods and add the vanilla bean paste to the sugar. Using your blender pulse the sugar and vanilla bean paste a few times until the sugar and vanilla paste is evenly mixed {this can also be done in a large mixing bowl and a spatula}. 

Pour the vanilla sugar into an airtight jar and store in your pantry. Use in baked goods or your morning cuppa  just as you would regular sugar.

Note: Since I store my vanilla sugar in such a large jar, I typically throw the extra {scrapped} vanilla pods into the jar as well. For no other reason than hey, I might as well get every bit of vanilla out of the pod. 🙂 

Fun Fact: The entire vanilla bean is actually edible!
