Fluffy pancakes dossed with maple syrup are an American classic and there’s no doubt that the combination is super tasty. But, if you’re only having pancakes with maple syrup, you’re neglecting so many other delicious toppings. Here are some pancake toppings you have to try.
Sugars and Spices
If you like a relatively simple pancake, top your pancakes with powdered, granulated sugar, or cinnamon sugar. For spices, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice are great additions to pancakes, especially pumpkin or apple ones.
Honey, Syrups, and Sauces
For those who don’t want to stray too far from maple syrup, try honey, Nutella, caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, coconut syrup, or fruit syrup.
Fruity Toppings
Fresh fruit on top of pancakes tastes like heaven. Some great options are fresh bananas, strawberries, blueberries, peaches, and apples. Dried fruits and jams work well also.
Creamy Toppings
Creamy toppings like soft cheeses, whipped cream, peanut butter, and ice cream really elevate basic pancakes.
Crunchy Toppings
Not only do nuts add some healthiness to your meal, they also add a nice texture when sprinkled on top. Pecans, walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, and macadamia nuts are all great choices.
