Vanilla sugar with orange and kiwi in the background

Vanilla sugar is just regular sugar that’s flavored with vanilla beans, so you can use it in any recipe that calls for sugar for a little extra boost of flavor. You don’t need a specific recipe, just some granulated sugar and vanilla beans (I love to use leftover vanilla beans from other recipes!)

Place the vanilla in a small jar or other container, cover with granulated sugar, and let them sit for a week or longer. The more vanilla beans you have in your sugar, the stronger the flavor.
