This is a simple way to elevate weekend pancakes, ready in just 10 minutes. Tart cranberries add beautiful color to maple syrup, making them feel very festive, perfect for celebrating the holidays. Be sure to save the reserved pulp and use it as a topping for yogurt and cereal or ice cream (or you could even fold it into your pancake batter). This vibrant and beautiful syrup also makes a quick and unusual housewarming gift.
