Good Morning! I tried the Keto Cream Cheese Pancakes this morning (I made them one day last week and they were OK). I worked a little more on my technique and liked them better this morning.
I would like a little syrup on them. Could someone suggest to me a brand they like? I think sugar-free food vary widely in their taste.
Thanks!

I just logged the 1/2 a TEASPOON of honey I used. 9 carbs!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!1

I don't have a syrup, but I use vanilla extract and a pinch of stevia (rather than other sugar substitutes), and double cinnamon in mine. I didn't measure the extract exactly, but it was well less than a teaspoon and 1 tsp is only .5g carbs. I cooked it and then poured melted butter on it. It was to die for and I'm making myself hungry just talking about it lol. May have them for dinner!3

As a side thought, you could try some maple extract for that flavor. It has more carbs than the vanilla, but not as much as honey or maple syrup.2

The pure Erythritol can be a *kitten* to find, in my experience, unless you just order it.
ETA: if you don't want to make your own, I've heard good things about Walden Farms pancake syrup. However, my experience with pretty much all of their products left something to be desired. Never tried that syrup though.0 -
There are a number of sugar-free syrups on the market (Joseph's, Nature's Hollow,) Cary's is not bad, but IDK what is all in it. Could be a real chemistry experiment. Probably mostly sugar alcohols.0

I just ordered a bottle of Sukrin Fiber Gold syrup, which they say is great for using on pancakes; will report results in about a week LOL3

Actually, the Walden Farms pancake syrup is one of their best items. I'm cutting way back on products with artificial sweeteners but this is one I kept on the grocery list.2 -
Ooh, lookie what I found:

I didn't mind the walden farms pancake syrup actually. Most of their other crap is gross though. Another option I've tried for topping LC pancakes is 11% MF greek yogurt mixed with half a scoop of vanilla protein powder and a bit of unsweetened almond milk.0

Be very careful of anything from Walden Farms. Just a single swipe of the sealed surface gave me an instant migraine level headache. Likely the MSG content in the "natural flavors" or some other random ingredient. I know this is an exception to others without this problem, but make sure to try what you can before investing in much by them.
Here is another simple recipe that has good reviews.

I'm a fan of their pancake syrup as well. It's not as thick as regular pancake syrup but it definitely has the right flavor. I tried their blueberry pancake syrup and I didn't like it anywhere near as much as the regular syrup. I haven't tried their strawberry pancake syrup yet either though I do have a bottle of that too. You can always make your home at own as previously suggested.

Yeah, blueberry is not the same. Quite runny. But I second their regular pancake syrup.0 -
I like the Sukrin Gold Fiber syrup. And their brown sugar substitute is great too2

I'm so glad to hear it, @robeylori I hope my kids agree with you (it's *mostly* for them

I'm not a fan of artificial sweeteners, so I usually whip some HWC and top my keto pancakes with that and a handful of blueberries. Also, I put vanilla extract and nutmeg in the pancakes.1

I don't do artificial sweeteners other than sweet leaf stevia. This weekend I made some low carb waffles and put a few blackberries in the batter and then just topped them with butter. It was delicious!

We don't usually use syrups here, but top our pancakes and waffles with full-fat unsweetened yogurt (usually Zia or Fage) and berries. Yum!0
