Can You Have Pancakes on a Diet?
A Breakfast Favourite
Delicious, warm, and fluffy pancakes: everyone loves them. But can you have them if you're on a diet? Let's find out!
Not Diet-Perfect, But...
Sadly, classic pancakes aren't the best breakfast food for a healthy diet as they're carb-rich and lack fibre. But wait, don't despair!
Healthify The Recipe
With the right ingredients, you can make pancakes more balanced, filling and nutritious — and include them in your diet. Here's how!
Boost The Fibres
Start by levelling up the fibre count. You can do so by using wholesome flours: think oat, buckwheat, or whole wheat flour!
