How to Make Pancakes Healthier





Mmm, I love Pancakes- one of my fave breakfast foods!

However, as they are made from white flour and sugar,
they are not necessarily the healthiest for us.

Here are 6 ways to make those Flap Jacks healthier for everyone in the family:

1. Try adding mashed sweet potatoes to your pancake batter
2. You can also try adding oats to the batter
(you have oatmeal in the mornings anyways right?)
3. Fruit is another great thing to add in the pancake batter,
and you know it will taste delicious
4. Instead of using an egg, you can try using a mashed banana.
5. Instead of using a cup of oil to make the pancakes fluffy,
you can use half a cup of applesauce instead.
6. And finally, try putting yogurt on top of that pancake for added sweetness,
rather than dousing it in maple syrup. Yogurt is sweet and a good
source of protein!

Have fun flippin' those healthy pancakes!
