Pancakes are an all-time favorite dessert. It’s so hard to resist them whether we’re talking about the American ones or the crêpes. They are filled with all kinds of chocolate, caramel, and fruit fillings, and on top of it all, there are the oh-so-tasty toppings.

Not being a fan of overfilled or pancakes with plenty of heavy toppings, that’s quite alright because you can have some delicious times even with a simple option, such as only fruit topping. Berries are always a great option, and if that’s too simple, you can add some berry sauce on top to make it taste more juicer.
3. Funfetti Pancakes
Even pancakes can be low sugar, gluten-free, high protein, and high fiber. And that doesn’t mean that they lack in taste compared with other recipes. Actually, the funfetti part adds to its taste, making the pancakes look really nice. Also, the recipe itself makes them buttery and soft. Adding some whipped cream can be a good idea, too.
4. Blueberry and Maple Syrup Pancakes
These pancakes are filled with blueberries, but you can put them only on top if you prefer them that way. Also, adding maple syrup is almost always a must. It goes really well with pancakes as if they both were cooked for each other. Any other type of berries would fit perfectly to this one as well.
5. Chocolate Sauce Topping

No matter how fruit and pancakes go well together, not mentioning a chocolate recipe would be such a pity. The chocolate sauce is very easy indeed, and by easy, we mean you only need three ingredients and ten minutes of your time. Adding orange slices on top is a very good combination with the sauce. But, if you prefer a more classic version, then you can add peanuts or other nuts.
6. Pecans and Brown Sugar Sauce
Pecans and brown sugar sauce, what an amazing combination! Plus, the recipe is quite interesting because it contains sweet potatoes. But, they are the perfect breakfast or dessert to share with your friends or family over a nice cup of coffee or tea.
