Today is National Maple Syrup Day and we couldn’t be more excited to indulge in the almost sinfully delicious natural sweetener. Maple syrup is paleo, vegan, and all-natural when bought in a good quality. In addition, it is incredibly versatile and can be used in both sweet and savory dishes. Here are some incredible treats we wouldn’t mind dipping our spoons into.
