    What Are The Most Popular Pancake Toppings?

    According to the study, the most popular topping is the combination of lemon and sugar, followed by maple syrup and chocolate (Nutella). Bacon is also on the list as the best savory topping.

    What Can I Add On My Pancakes Instead of Syrup?

    If you’re looking for a change in your pancake regime, then skip the syrup and try a few of these substitutions instead. You can opt for some jam/jelly, fresh fruit or even fruit sauces. If you’re looking to add a bit more thickness to your bite, then reach for the peanut butter, chocolate or nutella.  Or if you’re really looking for your pancakes to be extra hearty, top them with some eggs, bacon or ice cream! Let your cravings lead the way!

    • Sliced Bananas: Why not get a bit of potassium with your pancakes and top them with some sliced bananas?! You can mix mashed bananas into the pancakes batter, or simply add banana slices on top. Or if you’re really feeling ambitious, caramelize the bananas for an even sweeter taste.
    • Sliced Kiwi: A sweet, refreshing fruit with a bit of a tart taste, sliced kiwi can add natural sweetness to each bite of your pancakes.
    • Chopped Nuts: If you’re looking for a bit of crunch in your bite, then chopped nuts are the way to go! Grab some mixed nuts for a bit more variety in taste, but be sure to chop them up finely so that they don’t overpower your pancakes.
