This week on Pimp My Health, they decided to pimp your pancakes–everyone’s favorite hearty breakfast that tastes especially awesome on a cool fall morning after a great workout. If you’re not careful though, pancakes can be loaded with tons of empty carbs and sugar, but with a few simple twists, you can make them a much healthier morning (or evening) meal.
2. Skip the syrup. Top your pancakes with a mixture of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and/or blackberries. Even when they are not in season, you can get a frozen bag of mixed berries, warm them up and spread them across your cakes like syrup.
3. Fold in a puree of bananas, pumpkin, apples or carrots into the batter. This is an easy way to add more nutrients and flavor to your meal.
4. Try a new fall favorite–sweet potato pancakes!
