We all know that pancakes can't be eaten without a delicious river of maple syrup flowing over them, but pancakes are just the tip of the iceberg. Here is a list of other things you can put Maple Syrup on to take your eats to the next level.
Fruit
While fruit is always a healthy option, sometimes you just need to treat yourself! Bananas, strawberries, blueberries or pineapple, there is no wrong answer here.
Coffee
Wouldn't it be grand if we could just stay in bed all day? Unfortunately, life doesn't quite work like that. The next time you're reaching to pour syrup on your pancakes, move that hand a couple more inches and let a few drops fall into your morning brew! Whether you drink a latte, cappuccino or even a house blend, a splash of syrup will turn your plain cup of joe into a maple-infused delicacy.
Ice Cream
With this year's winter soon becoming a distant memory in our rear-view mirror, ice cream season is looming on the horizon. While we would never judge anyone for eating ice cream all year round (we think it should be it's own food group after all), there's nothing better than enjoying a cold treat on a hot day. What could be better? Well, drizzling silky smooth maple syrup all over that cold treat of course!
Meat
Everyone gets that craving for sweet & salty every now and then. Maple pork chops, maple pulled pork, maple ham steaks, the list goes on and on. We're getting close to the time when the fresh Simcoe air will be filled with the scent of good times and BBQ, and whether you want to spread some maple syrup on before you fire up the grill or drizzle it on after, theirs no way you won't enjoy this quintessentially Canadian twist on BBQ!
You might be asking yourself "but Barrie 360, how can I get my hands on real, delicious maple syrup?" Lucky for you "Maple Weekend" is on right now through April 7th! With demonstrations, activities, wagon rides and of course, pancakes with maple syrup, this event is perfect for some family fun
