So as I get ready to walk to the grocery store to pick up some syrup(wish they had genuine maple syrup, but they never do)... I figured I'd make a poll on what you all consider your favorite pancake topping.

Some people slather on butter, pour on the syrup of whatever flavor, and even others like me, coat it with a thin layer of peanut butter and drizzle it with syrup and never eat them any other way.

So what is your style?
 
A slice of butter right off the end of the stick on every pancake, drenched in maple syrup with chopped strawberries/fruit of your choice, sprinkled with ground almonds. <3
 
What do you mean concentrated heart attack? .......the butter? if so you couldn't be more wrong, the syrup will put you in your box quicker than the butter.

If my pancake was an oatmeal and protein pancake i'd top it with some berries and some sort of non peanut, peanut butter (walnuts and hazlenuts)

I like fresh fruit with a pancake. Developed in Florida 5 years ago in a place that served an all you can eat breakfast buffet.
 
syrup is ok, you can also put some jam on them, or maybe squeeze on some lemon.

WRONG! Real genuine maple syrup is very healthy for the body. I'm talking about the actual unadulterated stuff. Fewer calories and healthier than honey even.


The following link is a well respected website that I use to browse for ideas on how to utilize certain healthy foods, and what is in them, what to avoid, etc.

And as you can see... real syrup is QUITE healthy. It's about twice as expensive for about half the size, but they actually sell it in my local store.

As for oatmeal and protein pancakes... I have been eating my pancakes completely of oatmeal lately. All that it contains in them is oatmeal, milk, and spices depending on what i'm using them for. If I want more of a breakfast pancake, i'll add a cup of my chocolate protein powder in with it, some cinnamon and nutmeg.

If I am using the oatmeal pancakes as bread(which work AMAZINGLY well, and much healthier than white or wheat bread), I'll put in garlic powder, and some dried minced onion. When those cook, they have an amazing aroma, are firm with amazing texture, and you can't taste the oatmeal at all when you're eating your sandwich made using it.

Ah, maple syrup, you're right that's good stuff, full of nutrients just not too much like a lot of people have.

I thought you meant cane syrup, lots of people over here put that on their pancakes.
 
quite obviously lemon and sugar. how could you even dispute this?

on a normal pancake of course, on a scotch pancake (the little ones) either golden syrup and bacon... or cream cheese and smoked salmon.

I thought when it came to pancakes, maple syrup was the syrup implied D: Either that or that fruit syrup stuff which is loaded with sugar but tasty.

Lemon on pancakes? That sounds interesting, but not quite my cup of tea. I've never heard of pancakes having lemon on them.

Hmmmmm.


I still prefer my favorite... peanut butter and maple syrup. Sooooo good. You brits should try it!
 
It may not be healthy AT ALL, but the tastiest pancakes I have ever had were cooked in the pan right after a bunch of bacon came out of it. They soaked up all of the flavor from the bacon fat and with a little syrup they were divine!!! Try it (just don't make a habit of it).
 
devine? ok audrey.. they actually sound great though. holla.
 
add a dash more pretension and you got a recipe! for a slap.
 
Absolutely nothing... They are already filling enough as it is. But, on rare occasions, some butter.
 
Kane syrup?

I like butter and syrup but sometimes I also like to put strawberry jam.
 
it's not about being filling it's about being yummy. you eat pancakes on their own? what's the point? you might as well eat bread, vitamins and water all your life.

I'm not eating it plain to be healthy. What does that have to do with what I said? I eat it plain because they taste great without anything. It IS yummy.
 
I can't believe I am the only person who voted peanut butter and maple syrup.

MY GOD PEOPLE, none of you know how to enjoy pancakes!

I see you british people like eating them as if they were a solidified mass of tea... "Oh I'll just have a little bit of sugar and lemon in mine... I mean, ON mine, thank you kind sir."

<shakes his head solemnly>

By the way that wasn't meant to be condescending... I just find the whole lemon thing interestingly funny :)
 
I've been meaning to try the peanut butter pancake thing for a long time now. Just hardly ever have pancakes.
 
Think we may be thinking of different pankcakes :D

They are indeed real pancakes.

both of them, american and british are cooked in a pan yes... but which ones resemble more of a cake? Yes, that's right... the thick and fluffy american ones. :P

Anyways, as I said, the closest definition to what yours are anyways, is a crepe.

Hmm, you callin a crepe eater! :hmph:

:D

Well what of the humble tradition of 'Pancake Day' where the British Versions are cooked! :O

Well in all honesty, your American ones looks 10x more suited to the syrup etc. while ours are more suited to freshe fruit or lemon+sugar

:bounce:
 
I used to live in the maple syrup capital of the world. Plessissville Quebec, it's a shitty town.
 
And when you say sugar... are you talking about granulated sugar... or confectioners sugar? I would imigine the latter?
