1️⃣ Make the batter
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Add milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
- Mix until just combined. Do not overmix! (Lumps are okay).
2️⃣ Cook the pancakes
- Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat.
- Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of butter (optional, add points if used).
- Pour ¼ cup batter per pancake onto the pan.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes per side).
3️⃣ Serve & enjoy!
- Serve warm with sugar-free syrup, fresh fruit, or Greek yogurt for a lower-point topping.
Ways to Lower SmartPoints
✔️ Use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour → Saves 5 SP per serving
✔️ Swap sugar for zero-calorie sweetener → Saves 1-2 SP per serving
✔️ Use unsweetened almond milk instead of regular milk → Saves 1 SP per serving
✔️ Replace butter with unsweetened applesauce → Saves 2 SP per serving
With these swaps, you can reduce the recipe to just 4 SP per serving!
