Prepare the Lemon Cream Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to gently simmer.
Reduce heat to low and stir in lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Simmer for 2–3 minutes, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened.
Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, crepes, or desserts, or refrigerate and serve chilled.

For a thicker consistency, simmer a few extra minutes until the syrup coats the back of a spoon.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
