Apple pecan pancakes are a perfect way to start the day. They are a little heavier pancake and so you can feel satisfied for the whole morning. The combination of apples and pecans together are so good, they are like, salt and pepper, or Burt and Ernie; you get the picture.
Since my husband is in charge of making syrup for his work, I decided to make some extra. I made a new recipe from my cute daughter-in-law, coconut syrup. Oh wow is it good, and loaded with calories. But since it is National Pancake Day I decided to go ahead and splurge.
I will have to get the recipe to you in a couple of days. Who knew coconut syrup would be so good on apple pecan pancakes. Our other go to syrup is maple syrup. I have raised my kids on maple syrup and now they will not eat store bought syrup. They say that it is to thick and goopy. Yes we make up a few of our own words.
