IHOP Butter Pecan Syrup Recipe

I love how it transforms plain pancakes into something special with just a few drizzles!
The key to getting that ideal thickness is simmering the syrup just enough; too long and it becomes overly sticky.
One great thing about this syrup is how it balances sweetness and depth, making breakfast feel like a treat every day!
