Fluffy pancakes topped with maple syrup are a real treat, but if you’re sticking with maple syrup all the time, you’re missing out on other amazing toppings. When it comes to pancake toppings there are tons out there and these are the ones you should try.
Sugars and Spices
If you’re a fan of a basic pancake, topping your pancakes with sugar and spices is a great alternative to maple syrup. Powdered sugar, granulated sugar, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice are all great toppings.
Honey, Syrups, and Sauces
If you don’t want a drastic change to your pancakes, try adding honey, Nutella, caramel sauce, coconut syrup, chocolate sauce, or fruit syrup.
Fruity Toppings
Instead of putting fruit into your batter, top your pancakes with fresh fruit like bananas, strawberries, peaches, apples, and blueberries. Dried fruit and jam are also great additions.
Creamy Toppings
Some of our favorite toppings that are ideal for any sweet tooth are soft cheeses, peanut butter, and ice cream.
Crunchy Toppings
Nuts add a nice texture when sprinkled on top of pancakes. Some of our must-haves are pecans, almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, and macadamia nuts.
