SERVINGS: MAKES 9 PANCAKES / 2 FREESTYLE SMART POINTS FOR 3 PANCAKES
NOTES
Notes:
- I recommend using a canola oil base non stick cooking spray. I have noticed that the pancakes will stick sometimes to cooking oils such as coconut oil or sunflower oil.
- In order to calculate the freestyle smart points on a recipe you have to enter the ingredients in manually (by ingredient) not by the nutritional information in the ww recipe builder-since this recipe contains zero point items the app doesn’t realize there is zero point items in the recipe and will calculate it based only off the nutritional info which is not accurate.
- The key to making these pancakes nice and fluffy is beating 2 eggs whites together. Did you know that egg white when beaten really well-create a foam like texture? That is what makes these pancakes thick and fluffy. Therefore this is a critical step to ensure the pancakes turn out thick and fluffy.
- You can substitute the lemon juice/extract and blueberries for your favorite extract and/or fruit.
