With fall around the corner, I wanted to try out a butter pecan syrup recipe my friend shared with me. It paired great with French toast.

Add your toasted pecan pieces and take off the burner and cover while you prepare the toast. The syurp will thicken as it sits.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half, flour, and vanilla extract.
5

Heat your skillet to medium and melt the butter.
6

Fry on both sides until brown and place a few pieces on individual plates and pour your syrup over the top. Optional add powdered sugar for an extra boost of sweetness. Any leftover syrup stays shelf ready if in a sealed container for about 6 days.
