Had mine earlier with maple syrup. Scrumptious :)

And better in my opinion, is freshly squeezed orange juice sprinkled with sugar.

There's no option for maple syrup. Heresy!

The poll is a bit confusing. I want "Pancakes!" on my pancakes?

I have butter on mine but it's not on the list.

Looks like you forgot to add JalapeƱo or Habanero in your choices...

Cheers,

Lemon on pancakes? Is that a tradition in some parts of the world, or is that one of the silly answers? Please enlighten, o global friends :)

Pancakes are like eggs in that they can go with almost anything! But personally lemon seems like a waste when you can use whipped cream and jam instead.

Damn! How cruel! I've been told by my Doctor that I have gluten intolerance and can no longer eat such things. Yummy, a big stack of flapjacks with copious amounts of Vermont maple syrup. What torture!

Lemon and sugar is pretty common. Along with sliced banana, cream, jam, chocolate, fruit salad.... Ice cream...

This stuff is also good too... http://www.easiyo.com/easiyo-products/fruit-squirt-toppings.html

American style are really pikelets.

But anyway real pancakes look like below...

I'm upset that French Toast with Butter, Peanut Butter, and Syrup was not an option.

Thank you for enlightening me :)
Everything else you mention sounds pretty standard to this yank's palette, but the sharpness of lemon struck me as such a departure that I wanted to find out more.

The sharpness of the lemon offsets the sweetness. Probably my fav is just lemon juice.

You can get a lemon called lemonade which is nice too, really sweet. Sweeter than an orange.

Proper pancakes are think, flat and have no sugar in them - the ones shown above are pikelets, or dropped scones...

The best, THE BEST way to serve pancakes, is with a moderately thin spread of Lyles Golden Syrup (only the best will do!), then sprinkled with lemon juice...

Man, I'm drooling just thinking about it!

Mike.
