I can’t get enough of these Low Fat Whole Grain Pancakes!
If you have spent any time on my blog you know that I like to make pancake recipes. Well this is by far the best one yet! (Its even better than one my favorites – Flourless Oat Pumpkin Pancakes.) In fact I have made this recipe nearly every weekend for the past few weeks.
For a special treat I added a small amount of dark chocolate chips. In efforts to not totally go crazy on calories I skipped the syrup. You could also add dried/fresh fruit or top with fresh fruit.
If you decide to go with syrup make sure to keep to one serving or choose a lower sugar option. Remember the lower sugar options still have calories! One of my favorite tricks to limiting syrup is pureeing fruit (ie. strawberries) with 1 tablespoon of syrup. You won’t need to use as much sugary syrup for your pancakes!
