Sometimes I want a topping for Sunday Morning Pancakes that brings a little more umph than syrup. I want something in addition to syrup.
Since we always have a fruit with breakfast (and lunch!), I decided to make that part of the dish instead of just a side.
Sauteed bites of apple with the sweetness of crushed pecans is a great topping for pancakes.
Andrea’s Sauteed Apples with Crushed Pecans
- 2 Small – Medium Red Apples, chopped
- 1/2C Crushed Pecans
- 2TBSP Butter
- 1tsp Olive Oil
- 1/2tsp Cinnamon
In a medium sized skillet, heat butter and oil over medium heat. When the butter starts sizzling, add in the apples and cinnamon. Sautee for about 3 minutes and then add in the crushed pecans. Sautee for another 3 minutes, remove from heat and serve!
Makes enough topping for 3 servings.
Perfect for pancakes! The apples are warm but stil crisp since they are not cooked for very long. Plus you’re starting you day off with a serving of fruit!
