A large pancake is a soft, round cake made from a batter comprising flour, milk, eggs, sugar, and a leavening agent like baking powder. Originating from European and American cuisines, pancakes are a beloved breakfast staple enjoyed worldwide, often topped with butter, syrup, fruits, or whipped cream. Nutritionally, they provide a quick source of carbohydrates for energy, and when made with whole-grain flour, they can offer more fiber and nutrients. Adding toppings like fresh fruit can enhance their vitamin and antioxidant content. However, traditional pancakes are also high in refined carbs and may contain added sugar and fats, particularly if made with butter or topped with sugary syrups and spreads, which should be consumed in moderation. To make them a healthier option, consider substituting ingredients like whole-grain flour, using low-fat milk, or incorporating nutrient-dense toppings such as Greek yogurt, nuts, and berries.
