Last year I boiled our syrup too long and some of the jars crystalized. Is there a way to reverse it at this time?

Add add water and heat to dissolve - check gravity. Adjust to proper gravity, bingo, it's syrup.

Or (for home use) strain out the sugar, use the syrup, use the sugar. That's assuming it's liquid with crystals, as for slight over-heat.

or dump it in a pan, boil it more, and make sugar seriously (unless it's already there, in which case, use it.)

Add it in with your boiling sap. That is the most simple way to "recycle" a small amount. Now if you are talking a lot of it. (Called Rock Candy) Heat it up and add water or sap untill it reaches the correct density on your hydrometer.
