Well now, isn't this an indulgent looking breakfast? But I say if you can't allow yourself a little indulgence at the weekend then you really have to question your life choices.
We had our toasted waffles with good quality smoked streaky bacon, sliced banana, and my homemade syrup - if you can't bear the price of maple syrup sometimes then try making this, I think you'll love it:
Simply put 1 cup (in American measurement - it equates to 250ml) of light soft brown sugar into a saucepan. Add just 3-4 tablespoons of water to the pan, then bring to the boil and leave it to boil for 1 minute - don't stir it or it may start to caramelise! Then remove from the heat, decant into a fancy jug, and there you have it - almost instant syrupy indulgence. Happy weekend, everyone!
I weep at the cost of maple syrup and with porridge each day and pancakes and sausages on Sunday we get through far too much of the stuff. Will give your syrup a try ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty major expense! We love this syrup, give it a try and let me know what you think :) You could also try flavouring it with a little honey, or perhaps cinnamon?
