Maple Season is the time to enjoy Pancakes!
Maple Syrup is made from the sap of sugar maple - the trees that put on the big show every fall in the Granite State. Maple Syrup Season happens just once each year, usually runs from February to April in New Hampshire. Maple sap is clear water with about 2% sugar, so it takes about 40 gallons of fresh sap to make one gallon of maple syrup.
Some call it mud season, some call it frost heaves season, some call it spring - but to us here in Concord, this is Maple Syrup Season! And we love fresh boiled Maple Syrup on our pancakes! A pancake, btw, is a flat, round cake prepared from a flour-based batter with eggs, milk and butter and cooked on a hot griddle.

New Hampshire produces 170,000+ gallons of maple syrup a year. And, each of the more than 60 local sugarhouses offer special open houses on the New Hampshire Maple Month—Pancake breakfasts, horse-drawn rides, and more.
