Lighter Old Fashioned Pancakes
Ingredients · Servings 12
  • 2 cups all purpose flour (250g)
  • 4 egg whites
  • 2 tablespoons mazola corn oil (plus a little more for brushing pan/griddle)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 11/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Method · 40 min
  1. In a bowl, mix together the flour, salt, baking powder.
  2. In another bowl, beat the egg whites using an electric mixer until a peak forms. Add the milk, honey, corn oil and vanilla extract and beat just until combined.
  3. Pour half of the egg mixture into the flour mixture and mix to combine. Add the remaining egg mixture and mix to form a batter.
  4. Heat up a skillet on low heat or griddle then lightly brush with corn oil. Add a quarter cup of the batter and gently swirl to make a circle (or something like it. ha). Let it cook until bubbles form at the top. About 2-3 minutes. Flip to the other side and let it cook for another 2 minutes. Repeat process with the rest of the batter.
  5. Serve warm with your favorite pancake toppings! To maintain the healthier path, I suggest serving it with some Greek yogurt and fresh fruit. Enjoy!
