Pancake toppings

[natalie_1982]

Any ideas for pancake toppings aside from the tired (but undoubtably delicious)old lemon and sugar or maple syrup?  Anything that is tasty and not overloaded with cals would be great, but I'm not that fussy if it tastes good!

Nutella on warm pancakes always gets my vote. Yummy and gooey!

A good scoop of vanilla ice cream and a sprinkling of sugar..............marvellous !

Anything involving ice cream good, also honey and flaked almonds or those cartons of summer fruits you get in M&S (heated up 1st). My favorite is stewed apples (cheat with heated up pie filling) with ice cream and the caramel sauce you can buy as ice cream topping. Also anything alcoholic such as Grand Marnier or Calvados good. Think that you can have anything you fancy, just don't go too heavy on the topping, less is more.

strawberries and icecream.

Smoked bacon and maole syrup.

[purplefish]

buy a tin or jar of cherries in syrup, drain them and add a bit of creme fraiche

What did you have in the end, nats_1982 ?

(or anyone else for that matter)

(I would start a new question, but it would probably get removed for being too chatty !!)

I didn't as I was too full up from my dinner, but tonight we are not having dinner but eating as many pancakes as possible.  I have maple syrup, sugar, lemons, jam and nutella and will have a go at all of them!
