Vanilla bean sugar is super easy to make and super easy to use. 

All it takes is whole vanilla beans and granulated sugar. I used 5 vanilla beans for 1 1/2 kilos of sugar. Slice the vanilla bean in half and then scrape the inside of vanilla bean out. Drop it into the granulated sugar. DON’T THROW OUT THE VANILLA PODS! Put them in the mason jars and they keep perfuming the sugar. 

I use a food processor to make it and then store it in large mason jars. Store in a sealed jar and in a dark place. It stores for months.

I use it in making fresh strawberry jam, baking cakes and cookies and muffins.

It also makes amazing teachers gifts for end of school.
