I top my pancakes & waffles with_______
Fill in the blank.
Butter & warm real maple syrup with a sprinkle of pecans taste the best to me. What goes on top of yours?

fresh berries and a splash of maple syrup

Butter and powdered sugar, with a touch of syrup.

A syrup I make out of honey and lemon or orange. Seasonally maybe a raspberry coulis berry on hand. Every now and then a whipped sweet compound butter. Brunch at my house is calorie hefty.

I top mine with vanilla yogurt.

Fresh fruit - usually banana slices.

Warmed orange marmalade mixed with melted butter.

Fried chicken. Well, waffles, at least.

Bacon of course! Actually, when I make waffles, I sometimes put bacon crumbs into the batter to have built-in bacon-y goodness.

Nothing but pure Canadian maple syrup.

We always have thin, rolled Norwegian-style pancakes. I like them with sugar and soured cream. Or apricot jam and soured cream.

Jam

Butter and agave nectar.

Peanut butter and bananas, I can't believe no one has put this down yet....

Welll...luckily I don't eat pancakes and waffles much/often or I'd have a heart attack with what I put on them. :))
-But what I put on mine is a combination of honey, butter, vanilla and molasses...then I simmer it into a caramel sauce and drizzle and top with whipped cream...decadent and deadly delish.

mmm, pancakes are my favourite breakfast, with fresh blueberries and lots of real maple syrup!

I put banana slices into pancake batter made with whole wheat flour and oats. Then I slice fresh bananas on top with syrup made from brown sugar and water. (boil them together until it gets nice and thick!)

Since I moved to England, clotted cream is the ultimate pancake or waffle topping. I'll add fresh fruit or jam to the waffles (along with the clotted cream) but as a Canadian I think I would lose my passport if I didn't top my pancakes with maple syrup. I couldn't mess with perfection like that.

Pancakes get butter & salt, waffles get butter and real maple syrup if it's available and powdered sugar if it's not.
If the base is good, the toppings are best kept simple. I might even have to make some pancakes for dinner tonight...

I top my pancakes with a warm blueberry compote (I cook blueberries with honey or maple syrup for a few minutes, until softened.) I like this much better than putting blueberries in the batter.

Butter and jam (preferably strawberry) on pancakes; butter and maple syrup on waffles.

Dont eat pancakes, but my fav topping for waffles is homemade lemon or orange curd! yummy!!

A note on real maple syrup: Try Grade B---thicker, more maple-y, less expensive---buy it by mail in the 6 or 12 pak. The paler, more expensive Grade A amber is what they sell to tourists but I have been told that the locals always use Grade B. I'm not a local, but I think there's no contest.

1: Pure Maple Syrup
2. Bananas sliced into the batter so they slightly caramelize as the pancake bakes. Top with melted peanut butter (possibly chocolate chips).
3. Fresh berries, preferrably blueberries.

Yumm, it all sounds so delicious!
Maple syrup and butter, or fresh fruit and honey. Sometimes whipped cream and honey.

Waffles: maple syrup and butter.
Pancakes: Maybe a small drizzle of maple syrup if anything, but if there is anything added to the batter like blueberries (my favorite!) or chocolate chips, no topping necessary!

Peanut Butter!!! Come on, folks--peanut butter and syrup is the best combination for pancakes, ever! And the protein will keep you from getting hungry again in a couple hours.
