Ultimate Side: Golden Glazed Bacon

So pancakes are all well and good, fluffy American pancakes are even better but to take it to the next level you need bacon. Serious bacon.

I'm talking salty, sweet and delicious!

So whip up some fluffy stacks and then fry up the good stuff - smoked streaky rashers. I don't object to a little butter to get them going...

Take the bacon out of the pan (fried not grilled- it is the weekend!) and drain on some kitchen paper. In your pan still over a low heat add a spoonful of golden syrup (maple syrup works equally well). When it's bubbly throw your bacon back in until its glazed- 3 mins max.

Then serve straight over a pancake stack.

Yum. Take that Sunday!
