20 Healthy Pancake Recipes That Will Blow Your Mind

Whether your favorite ingredients are almonds, coconuts, or carrots, there’s a pancake recipe here for you.

Mix up your meal plan with a whole new twist like gingerbread pancakes, bump up the protein by swapping protein powder for half of the flour, and if you’re looking for more flavor without a lot of butter or sugar, add in a dash of cinnamon, a little lemon zest, or a sprinkle of candied ginger.

Oh and a little pancake protip: get some silicone pancake rings for making thick, moist flapjacks.

Enjoy!

The Ultimate Buttermilk Pancakes

Sometimes you just need thick pancakes with simple buttery flavor. No fruit, no healthy substitutes like seeds, just fluffy pancakes to drizzle with real maple syrup.

These buttermilk pancakes are even better than what you’ll get in a diner, and you don’t need ready-made mix. The batter is a simple mix of flour, buttermilk, and an egg. A dollop of Greek yogurt makes them thick. Then, a touch of butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract round out the classic pancake flavors.

Serves 4 / Makes 16

Ingredients

1 cup + 2 Tbsp. whole-wheat pastry flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted

1 large egg

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk, room temp.

1 tsp. pure maple syrup

1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt

Healthy Pumpkin Pancakes

pumpkin pancake recipe Picture courtesy of Baker by Nature

Here’s proof that healthy pancakes don’t have to be flavorless, just better balanced to ensure they deliver plenty of nutrition.

Whole-wheat flour and ground oats are always a good choice since they add complex carbs, digesting slowly so your blood sugar won’t spike. These pancakes have both Greek yogurt and pumpkin in place of oil, and almond milk shaves off a few calories.

Serves 4

Ingredients

3 large eggs, separated

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup pumpkin puree

3 Tbsp. unsweetened almond milk

2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

1 tsp. vanilla extract

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 cup oat flour

1/2 cup whole-wheat flour

Greek Yogurt Pancakes

Pancakes don’t need to be full of simple carbs and empty calories. Make a thick batter using Greek yogurt and whole-wheat flour, and you’ll wind up with pancakes that are tastier and better for you than Bisquick.

And the sugar is optional, so you can leave it out or substitute a sprinkle of stevia. Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a handful of fresh fruit, and you won’t even need the maple syrup.

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups whole-wheat flour

2 tsp. baking powder

2 Tbsp. granulated sugar (optional)

1/2 tsp. salt

2 Tbsp. oil

2 large eggs

1 tsp. vanilla extract

Fluffy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Pancakes

You’re an adult, which means you can have chocolate chips for breakfast whenever you want to. Adding a few to your pancake batter is hardly going to wreck your morning nutrition. Just take it easy on the maple syrup, or go for an alternative like PB2 syrup.

Instead of slathering on thick peanut butter, mix up a pourable peanut syrup with 1/4 cup PB2, a teaspoon of honey, and cinnamon to taste. Add enough water to reach the desired thickness, about 2 to 3 tablespoons.

Serves 4 / Makes 8

Ative Ingredients

2 cups oat flour

2 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

Dutch Pancakes

These pancakes aren’t exactly health conscious, but they are traditional and – more importantly – super delicious. And since they’re small, they’re awesome to add to any brunch spread so that everyone can get a taste of pancakes without having a whole stack.

It’s also fun to pile on other breakfast favorites like bacon, cheese, or fruit salad, treating these baby pancakes like finger food.

Serves 16

Ingredients

4 cups flour

1/8 cup vanilla sugar (or 2 Tbsp. sugar + 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract)

7 oz. (about 3/4 cup) custard

Gingerbread Pancakes with Lemon Syrup 

gingerbread pancakes recipe Picture courtesy of The Food Charlatan

Pancakes don’t always have to be a fallback brunch entrée. This recipe proves that pancakes can be stellar enough to serve on Christmas morning.

They’re inspired by a traditional winter dessert: gingerbread. And although these would taste great with maple syrup, making a lemon-buttermilk syrup from scratch is a tasty alternative, and a drizzle makes these pancakes instantly gourmet.

The recipe makes a ton of lemon syrup, so be sure to serve with no more than a quarter of the batch. Keep the rest in the fridge for up to a week.

Serves 5 / Makes 15

Ingredients

Lemon Syrup:

1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter

2/3 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)

1/2 cup buttermilk

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

1 1/2 tsp. baking soda

3–5 tsp. lemon zest

Gingerbread Pancakes:

1 1/2 cups flour

5 Tbsp. brown sugar

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

3/4 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. salt

2 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 tsp. ground ginger

1/4 tsp. ground cardamom

1 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg

1/2 tsp. ground cloves

Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberry Maple Syrup

healthy ricotta pancakes recipe Picture courtesy of The Healthy Chef

You can add blueberries to any pancake batter by gently folding them in at the very end. But for optimum blueberry flavor, it’s best to make a syrup from scratch.

Syrup can seem intimidating if you start with granulated sugar because it can get grainy, but you can skip it and cook the blueberries in a mixture of apple juice and maple syrup. Serve with half the blueberry syrup, and you can save the rest for dessert.

Serves 4 / Makes 8

Ingredients

Ricotta Pancakes:

4 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 cup old-fashioned oats

1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 tsp. baking powder

2 Tbsp. chia seeds (or flaxseed)

1/2 cup ricotta cheese

Apple Cinnamon Paleo Pancakes

Apple pancakes are a delicious way to celebrate harvest season.

In this recipe, almond butter enhances the flavor of the apples while adding some depth. But maybe the best part is what isn’t in these pancakes: flour or oats. So you’re able to indulge while actually eating a big stack of fresh fruit, eggs, and almonds with no added sugar – except maybe some pure maple syrup.

Serves 2

Ingredients

2 large eggs

2 bananas, mashed

1 peeled apple, diced small

Leftover mashed potatoes from dinner can be repurposed for tomorrow’s breakfast, and if they’re loaded with sour cream and herbs, all the better.

 Red Velvet Pancakes

Can you believe these red velvet pancakes are made with bananas and beets? So you can enjoy cake for breakfast while getting in plenty of nutrients, including vitamins and fiber from the beets.

Coconut Flour Pancakes

Anything with coconut is all the rage. With coconut water, sugar, oil, milk and flour now readily available, it would seem coconut has conquered all the staple ingredients.

But what makes coconut flour so much better than traditional all-purpose? It has a lot of fiber, contains few carbs, and compared to almond flour, has surprisingly little fat. The two tablespoons in this recipe add 4 grams of fat, 5 grams of protein, and 17 grams of carbohydrates – 11 grams of which are insoluble fiber.

Serves 2 / Makes 2

3/4 cup vanilla protein powder

2 Tbsp. coconut flour

Whole Wheat Pancakes

Most importantly, swap the white flour for whole wheat. If you don’t like the rougher texture, look for the bag labeled “whole wheat pastry flour.” Ground from the soft wheat berry, it has lower protein content but makes a fluffier pancake.

Serves 3 / Makes 6

Ingredients

1 cup low-fat milk

1 Tbsp. vinegar

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour

Some popular pre-workouts are all-natural. Some contain the right mix of high-quality ingredients. Some provide clinically effective doses. But only Pulse checks each of these boxes.

Pulse doesn’t just “contain natural ingredients''—every ingredient is naturally sourced from plants and animals. Pulse contains no artificial or synthetic substances of any kind.

Every serving of Pulse contains 15.1 grams of active ingredients that have been shown to be safe and effective in peer-reviewed scientific research.

Every active ingredient in Pulse is backed by published scientific studies that show benefits in healthy humans.

Pulse contains no harsh stimulants that wind you up and burn you out. Instead, it contains a 1:1 ratio of caffeine and L-theanine, which produces a smooth energy rush and comfortable comedown.

We carefully examined 508 pages of scientific research to find out exactly what should and shouldn’t be in a pre-workout supplement.

Every bottle of Pulse is guaranteed to provide exactly what the label claims and nothing else—no heavy metals, microbes, allergens, or other contaminants.

While these types of chemicals may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of them may indeed be harmful to our health. And that’s why we don’t put any of them into our products.

Before you buy a sports supplement, you should know that it's clean, safe, and transparent. And that's exactly what Labdoor's third-party testing and certification means.

It's hard to know for sure, but this probably makes Pulse the most-popular all-natural pre-workout supplement in the world.

If you don’t absolutely love this product, just let us know, and we’ll give you a full refund on the spot. No forms or return necessary.
