Daily Fit Tip: Make healthier pancakes
Pancakes are a breakfast "staple" food that most of us try to avoid because they are usually full of nothing but sugar, fat, and carbs. But if you're not afraid to do a little experimenting, finding a healthier pancake recipe that still satisfies the 'comfort food' factor and tastes good is not that hard. The good thing about pancakes is that their basic formula leaves a lot of room to substitute ingredients and add things in to make them a smarter option. Tips for a healthier pancake:
- Substitute whole wheat flour for white flour for a fiber boost.
- Add in fresh blueberries, pumpkin, or grated apples for valuable antioxidants.
- Use less sugar and add in some sweet-tasting spices like vanilla, cinnamon, and/or nutmeg
- Top with fresh fruit, yogurt, or jam instead of syrup.
