Low Fat, Low Sugar Pancakes
Categories: Dessert
Yield: 2 Servings
1 egg
2 tablespoons self-rising flour
2 tablespoons nonfat milk
2 strawberries
1.5 teaspoons honey
3 extra strawberries - chopped
Wash and cut the top off the strawberries. Add them to the egg in a
bowl and blend thoroughly. Add the self-rising flour, non-fat milk and
honey.
Place a little water into a non-stick fry pan and heat. Place the
mixture into the fry pan and cook until small bubbles appear on the
top. Turn gently and cook on the other side.
Remove from pan and serve with the extra strawberries.
Cooking Tip: To increase the amount of fiber in this recipe, substitute
the white self-rising flour for wholemeal flour. The benefit of doing so,
is that the pancakes are digested at a slower rate and increases your total
intake of fiber. You need about 25 - 30 grams of fiber daily depending on
your own individual needs.
Cooking Tip: The mixture can break easily, so make sure that you turn
gently.
Cooking Tip: Also if you are watching your cholesterol, the egg in this
recipe makes it quite expensive as far as cholesterol goes - so you may
want to substitute this with some kind of low cholesterol egg substitute.
You can find these at most health food stores. Ask the shop assistant if
you need help finding it.
