Best Buttermilk Syrup & Thermador New Steam Convection Oven
Feasting your eyes on this amazing buttermilk pancake syrup just isn’t enough. You have to taste it to believe that it really is the best buttermilk syrup recipe around. We were completely won over after the first bite and once we licked the plate clean of the clingy decadence, we were convinced that it really is a rock-star buttermilk syrup recipe. Breakfast will never be the same!
Easy Buttermilk Syrup Recipe
Thanks to Thermador for inviting us out to their showroom in Scottsdale, AZ, we were able to feast on their prize winning pancakes and buttermilk syrup. Along with a fabulous group of other food writers, photographers and bloggers, Thermador invited us all to see the debut of their new Thermador Steam Convection Oven.

Our kitchen is no stranger to the prized quality and performance of Thermador products. Six years ago we remodeled our kitchen and immediately chose Thermador appliances for their design and performance . To this day, after intensive use and serious party-after-party beatings, they still perform like the day we installed them. Trust us, after running our home kitchen like an industrial kitchen at times, our Thermador appliances help up to almost every cooking feat imaginable.
Thermador’s legacy began in the 1900’s when they were the first to introduce the cook-top, the double oven and the first stainless steel ranges. Today, they remain committed to innovative design and professional performance.
Thermador has launched their newest product to continue on with their tradition and commitment to producing high-quality, professional performance appliances. Welcome, the new steam convection oven, a brilliant application to a consumer based appliance that is sure to shake the home cooking world.

Steam ovens aren’t new to industrial kitchens, but having a steam oven in a home appliance is a rarity. Not only did Thermador develop a steam application to a home oven, but also the same oven continues to still have the features of a traditional convection oven.
The benefits of the Theramdor’s steam convection ovenare to quickly prepare healthy meals such as steamed fish, poached eggs, asparagus and almost an other cooking application that requires very little oil. The food remains fresh, flavorful, moist and as healthy as you want it to be.
The steam convection oven can produce fantastic crusty breads, without having to induce steam through traditional methods like spraying water in the oven or pouring water onto a hot sheet pan. The oven does it all. And better yet, the steam feature can bake bagels and pretzels without the pre-boiling the dough and the oven can even steam yogurt to set! No more bain marie needed.
Thermador showroom kitchen. Gorgeous.
But make sure you have extra room in your kitchen to add this addition steam oven appliance and that your wallet can fit the bill. And oh, although the steam oven can produce some mighty moist chicken breast and turkey, the size limitation of the oven can hold maybe a 12 pound turkey. You might want to keep your tradition oven for your Thanksgiving turkey feasts.
Regardless, the steam features to the convection oven is genius and sure to change the way we cook in our home kitchens. We can’t till they come out with a bigger double steam convection oven cause we can cook up our huge turkey to perfect moistness and still have 4 pies going on at once! Hear that Thermador? hint, hint. Can’t wait!
Re-cap of the Thermador trip:
The Thermador showroom in Scottsdale Arizona has been won architectural awards for design. The award is definitely well deserved.
We participated in cooking activities in their gorgeous Thermador demo kitchen, as well as watched some demos on their steam oven, gas cooktop ranges and induction cooktops.
Fun Breakfast with Thermador
Chef Kyle and his fantastic culinary team prepared a great breakfast and lunch for the group that was full of wonderful whole grains, fresh salads and stellar fish and meats. There was so much food, the whole group almost passed out in a food coma. But all the food was so fresh and healthy, we would have all died in good health.
In fact, all of Thermador’s recipes highlight fresh, healthy and easily prepared meals for your family.

Buttermilk Syrup Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups (340 g) Butter
- 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) Buttermilk
- 3 cups (575 g) Sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) Vanilla
- 1 Tablespoon (15ml) Baking Soda
Instructions
- In large saucepan (make sure it is big enough to accommodate the syrup foaming when the baking soda is added), combine butter, buttermilk, and sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring regularly.
- Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla and baking soda (it will foam up at this point.) It is now ready to serve.
- Keeps for at least a couple weeks if you can manage to not use it all up quicker.

There is a killer carrot cake recipe on another site which uses this same syrup recipe for a soak/glaze for the cake in place of a simple syrup. As a pancake syrup I’m certain it would be DIVINE!!! Since my husband needs less sugar (a diet-controlled “former” T2 diabetic…but it was his birthday, thus the splurge), I cut down the sugar with stevia (less than equal amounts since it’s so much sweeter imo) and it turned out awesome! Excited to try this as pancake syrup! Thanks! 🙂
Wow, I am in awe of this syrup. I just paired it with fluffy buttermilk pancakes and spiced apples (which I sautéed with butter, cinnamon, and a little lemon juice), and I have to say, it was one of the most incredible things I’ve ever eaten. It’s so simple, but incredibly delicious. With the apples, it tasted almost like a dessert, but more buttery than sweet. I love it! Keep the recipes coming!
I saw a steam oven recently but didn’t realize its full potential until I read this post. Now I want one, but there’s no room in my kitchen. Boo hoo 🙁
I never liked pancakes or french toast because the syrup made me kind of sweet sick! Tried yours for my Dad, and now I dream of pancakes with this syrup! YUM!
Thanks so much for an awesome recipe – its so hard to find syrup where I am (italy) and when we have found it its 10 euros for a tiny bottle! I will try this out as my syrup replacement 🙂
I am coveting that steam convection oven–oh the bread!! Beautiful pictures. They make me even more sad that I had to miss the event (on top of the fact that I had to miss out on a chance to hang out with you two)!
Fun post. Glad to learn about this oven. Absolutely love to see pics of bloggers posing with food! Those are great!

what a great syrup recipe – I have never thought of using buttermilk in syrup. Genius I say!
Fantastic shots you guys took, from what must have been an awesome trip!
The syrup is a great idea for left over buttermilk that you have when a recipe only calls for one cup and you still have the rest of the quart left.
Great photos and post. This syrup sounds addictive, but I’m going to make it anyway.
for the love, your photos are so awesome and just make me smile. love it! what a fantastic day that was….and, I like to think that picture of the syrup is all it can be because I held a plate up for you. right? right? 🙂 it was lovely spending time with you peeps…talk soon…
