Strawberry Orange Pancake Syrup
I just love when I have TONS of strawberries.
Especially when they are all ripe and sweet.
I recently had an enormous amount of VERY ripe strawberries and although we were eating them as fast as we could there was the chance that we wouldn’t get to them all.
I decided to slice them up and make a strawberry syrup, it’s seemed perfect because I was really was making my favorite pancake recipe too.
I sliced 4 cups of whole strawberries in half, which gave me a bit over 2 cups once they were cut. Easily this recipe can be halved or doubled depending on how many strawberries you have, or blueberries, oh yes blueberry syrup sounds delicious.

Wow, this looks delicious. I love pancakes, but don’t eat them often because I sometimes want syrup variations to change things up a bit, and I have just found a new one. Thanks so much for sharing!!

I just love having fresh berries! I’ve been known to put strawberry pancake syrup on ice cream, too!
