Tired of maple syrup for pancakes and waffles? Then you have got to try my lemon cream syrup! It’s sweet, tart, and will brighten up your breakfast!

So, I have an addiction to lemon.  I know I ‘ve said it before, but seriously I have a problem.  My kids love, love, love buttermilk pancakes or waffles.  I like pancakes, too, but I get so tired of maple syrup and even my Cinnamon Cream Syrup.  Being in the lemon mood that I’m in, I thought a lemon type syrup would be fantastic.  This lemon cream syrup turned out better than I expected.  The sweet and tart balanced perfectly!  This recipe is definitely a keeper!

This recipe is incredibly simple.  The only note I really have it that you must, must, must use fresh lemon juice.  I know that squeezing lemons can be a pain, but a kitchen gadget that I’ve recently been using is a real time saver for this and any other recipe that you need to squeeze fresh lemon juice for.  Squeezing fresh lemon juice has always been more time consuming than I think it should be because I always need to strain out the pulp and seeds.  I had the opportunity to try the Lemon Lime Squeezer from Zulay Kitchens.  It is awesome!  It’s made of metal instead of flimsy plastic and it’s so easy to clean, which it important to me too.  Plus, I was able to quickly juice my lemons without having to strain the juice.  If you’re interested in purchasing one click here!  You will not be disappointed!
