[bucolic_frolic]

[Aristus]

13. Peanut butter.

[debm55]

18. That's different. The regular or chunky kind?

[Aristus]

20. Chunky.

I like to refer to the creamy variety as peanut-flavored butter.

[debm55]

23. That's funny, Enjoy your pancakes with chunky PB Thank you Aristus.

Apricot or Raspberry or Blackberry or Marionberry.

[debm55]

25. Wow, you have a whole meal planned. Thank you SamKnause.

[Niagara]

28. I sprinkle cinnamon on my keto gf pancakes. Then I add a large pat of butter.

Sometimes, I dip my pancake into an over easy egg yolk, just because I'm weird like that.

[debm55]

32. That's different. Thank you Niagara.

[arkielib]

[localroger]

36. Pure cane molasses

Don't even bother looking for it, it's an industrial product. Precursor for other stuff or animal feed. But soooo rich, not even all that seeet. I got a gallon "sample" once and put it on pancakes for years. Too bad the place that gave it to me is no longer here.

[debm55]

41. Is that like Black Strap Molasses? Grandmother would always mix with warm milk and bread , We drank it before bed. I

didn't like it. Your Pure Cane Molasses sounds better. TY localroger.

[localroger]

96. Yep, black strap molasses is another purification step down /nt

[cloudbase]

37. Butter and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

[debm55]

44. I love lingonberries, TY yorkster.

[Thunderbeast]

43. Plain yogurt and berries from the freezer.

[debm55]

45. Great idea, Thunderbeast. Thank you for the suggestion.

[nevergiveup]

46. I would be so pissed I didn't have syrup I would

probably pour warm Dr. Pepper on them with a lot of melted butter and also a few fresh strawberries for
health reasons.

[debm55]

50. In our house, people make things where some of the extras are missing. No one says they used up the rest of the syrup,

relish, etc. I get what you are saying. I tell them PLEASE write it down when you use the last of anything. But some folks
here can't seem to get it, Yes, I have made pancakes and searched like crazy for the syrup that was gone. I understand what you are saying. I do like your concoction of Dr, Pepper, fresh strawberries and melted butter. TY nevergiveup

[Warren_Pointe]

47. Whipped cream and strawberry jam

[debm55]

51. Yummy, that sounds good. Thank you Warren_Pointe.

[LakeArenal]

48. Recently I found black cherry preserves.

I have been putting it on my pancakes.

[debm55]

52. thank you, LakeArenal. That sounds great.

[Different Drummer]

49. Butter and orange marmalade.

[debm55]

53. Different Drummer, good choice of toppers, /ty

[Chainfire]

54. DON'T CALL ME HONEY!

If you don't have some good cane syrup, just eat the grits, eggs and bacon. When we were kids, and out of syrup, dad would just mix sugar and water and heat it to make our own syrup.

[debm55]

55. , Sorry., didn't mean to get you upset.🤔

[debm55]

67. Don't understand your title as I did not call you honey. are you serious or pulling my leg?

[Chainfire]

95. I am just an old teaser. ;)

[Elessar Zappa]

56. Honey or white karo syrup.

[debm55]

57. Yes, I forgot about that. My aunt never used syrup at her house. It was karo syrup. thanks for bringing that up Elessar

Zappa.

[DC77]

58. Butter, Peanut butter, and Strawberry jam

Just had it on French Toast. Syrup is usually not real syrup but high fructose corn syrup junk. Also very sticky.

[debm55]

60. Yes, I always liked grape jelly on my french toast. Your idea of butter, PB, and jam sounds great. Ty DC77

[Jilly_in_VA]

59. Fried apples with lots of cinnamon

and maybe a little honey.

[debm55]

61. Sounds great, I think I might try. TY Jilly_in_VA

[doc03]

62. Make my own syrup with brown sugar or granulated sugar add some

maple exreact and butter. Mrs. Butterworth

[debm55]

64. Sounds great. I will try, TY doc03

[doc03]

99. I remember my mother making syrup that way. I don't know why, maybe it was cheaper than store

bought or we were just out syrup.

[mzmolly]

63. Lingonberry Spread

[debm55]

65. Thank you I will look for the recipe Great idea, mzmolly

[mzmolly]

75. It's delicious! I purchase it at our local

grocery store. Though a recipe would likely be far better.

The best I've found can also be purchased online: https://www.aljohnsonsshop.com/al-johnsons-wild-organic-swedish-lingonberries/

Well worth the treat!

[debm55]

78. My late MiL was born in Finland and used a lot of the berry in her dishes.

[mzmolly]

79. Yum!

Lucky you.

[CTyankee]

85. What do lingonberries taste like?

sounds exotic and something I'd like to try.

[mzmolly]

86. They're very good. A bit tart and acidic

like cranberry, but slightly sweet. Al Johnson's brand is the best from what I've tried, personally.

[MaryMagdaline]

66. Powdered sugar

[debm55]

69. Sounds good, Thank you, MaryMagdaline.

[surrealAmerican]

68. cinnamon sugar ...

... unless they're German pancakes, for those it's powdered sugar and a squeeze of lemon ...

... or Swedish pancakes, but I'm way more likely to have maple syrup than lingonberry jam in the house.

[debm55]

70. Thank you surrealAmerican. I never knew there were German and Swedish pancakes.

[AnnaLee]

74. I agree about cinnamon sugar, but I would add a banana too. ntp

[IcyPeas]

97. Yes. Another vote for lemon juice and sugar.

[appleannie1]

71. I would boil down some berries.

Then pour it through a sieve to extract the seeds.

[debm55]

73. appleannie1, thank you that is a great idea.

[EYESORE 9001]

72. Sliced peaches and whipped cream

Or strawberries or blueberries.

[debm55]

76. EYESORE 9001, thank you that sounds great.

[bamagal62]

81. Butter and powdered sugar!

[Aussie105]

82. My vote is for . . .

Strawberry jam and cream!

[debm55]

83. Yummy, thank you so much, Aussie105

[woodsprite]

84. Butter and pear preserves! nt

[debm55]

87. woodsprite---wonderful. Thank you so much

[beemerphill]

88. No syrup would be a sad thing indeed, but

You can spread some real butter on the pancake followed by a couple of spoons of brown sugar. Roll it up, pick it up, and enjoy. And don't forget that Nutella is an excellent pancake topper. If neither of these is available, any fruit jam will work.

[debm55]

90. Thank you, beemerpill. I forgot about Nutella yummy

[Emile]

89. Butter and strawberry jelly

[debm55]

91. Emile , thank you. Sounds great, have you had before?

[MissB]

92. Homemade unsweetened applesauce

I use it frequently.

[debm55]

93. MissB, that sounds great, Thank you

[sakabatou]

98. Honey/butter

[debm55]

106. Me too.

[electric_blue68]

100. Are you kidding?! It's butter, and mo' butter! I do like to...

add maple syrup, too. 👍

[debm55]

107. I would like melted butter on mine too, with a little bit of honey

[area51]

102. Just margarine.

[debm55]

108. Oh you

[Chi67]

103. Easy!

Butter, cream cheese and blueberries.

[debm55]

110. Chi, I would skip the butter and have the cream cheese and blueberries. Yummy

[Chi67]

121. Why?

When you can have both? 😊

[debm55]

123. I would slightly melt the cream cheese in the microwave instead of using butter. Only like butter with syrup.

[claudette]

104. Well, to be

honest, I absolutely hate maple syrup. I know that sounds strange. My family thinks so too. 😊
So, I rarely eat pancakes but when I do, I always use lots of butter - and blueberry syrup on at least one pancake. 😊

[debm55]

111. I understand, The blueberry syrup sounds fine.

[claudette]

115. It's yummy!

[malthaussen]

109. If syrup was not available, I would not have pancakes. n/t

[debm55]

113. We all have our choices. Thank you malthaussen.

[3catwoman3]

112. Butter and IKEA's lingonberry jam.

We also have a local specialty from the Finger Lakes area in upstate NY - black currant syrup. Delicious. We stock up every summer when we go there.

[debm55]

114. 3catwoman3 We love IKEA's lingonberry jam. The black currant syrup sounds great. TY

[lastlib]

116. My mother's home-made apple butter.

Nothin' better on pancakes. - - - - - -

[debm55]

124. lastlib, that sound greatTY

[Arkansas Granny]

117. PB&J. My kids would make PB&J sandwiches using leftover pancakes.

[debm55]

118. That's sounds good Arkansas Granny, I would eat one.

[sarge43]

119. Cherry jam n/t

[debm55]

125. yummy. That sounds good

[beaglelover]

120. Ack! Don't like pancakes, they don't agree with me at all. But if I did eat them, I'd put strawberry jelly on them if

there was no syrup. Also maybe just butter and powdered sugar.

[debm55]

126. Sounds good beaglelover. TY

[ProfessorGAC]

122. Cinnamon/Sugar

Without hesitation.

[debm55]

127. Excellent, ProfessorGAC. TY

[yellowdogintexas]

128. strawberry, peach or plum preserves.

Various family members always canned a lot of these fruit preserves.
They also did apple and pear preserves but they are not my favorites

One of my aunts had a Damson plum tree, and those were awesome preserves!!

In a pinch, fruit jelly is fine. We always had tons of grape jelly because my grandmother had a large concord grape arbor.

[debm55]

131. The plum preserves sound awesome I would put a liitle whipped cream on top TY

[BigOleDummy]

129. So many good ones to try!

Apple Butter with some marg/butter is my main "no syrup" goto. Use different jellies/jams all the time including orange marmalade.

[debm55]

133. I know there are so many here that I never tried that sound great. apple butter sounds great too. Ty BigOleDummy

[Golden Raisin]

130. A thin layer of Orange/Apricot Marmalade.

[debm55]

132. Sounds delicious TY you Golden Raisin,
