Tips and Variations

  • To cut calories, try using cooking spray instead of oil.
  • For lighter pancakes, use only egg whites instead of whole eggs.
  • Add chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fibre and omega-3s.
  • Use chocolate protein powder instead of vanilla for a more dessert-like flavour.
  • Swap oats for almond flour if you prefer fewer carbs.
  • Top your pancakes with sliced banana and a dusting of cinnamon for extra flavour.
  • I like serving these pancakes with natural yoghurt, berries, and a little honey or peanut butter.
  • Pair them with coffee or a smoothie for a satisfying breakfast.

Meal Storage

Store any leftovers in a container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the microwave, toaster, or on the stove.

Freezer tips

Stack the pancakes with parchment paper between each one and freeze them at -18°C for up to 2 months.

Let the pancakes thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
