So tasty and fluffy, but at the same time, dietary pancakes will be the best solution for those who are watching their figure. There are many recipes for making American pancakes that do not contain wheat flour and sugar, but this does not make them lose their taste. The calorie content of such a dessert is less than 200 kcal per 100 grams, so they can be eaten even while on a diet. Pancakes are incredibly easy to make and the entire process only takes a few minutes. The most popular recipes are those that include bananas and oatmeal, and these ingredients can be combined or used separately.
To make oatmeal pancakes, you only need 3 ingredients:
- oat flakes - 150 g;
- egg;
- milk - 100 ml.
First you need to grind the flakes to get flour, and a blender will help with this. If you don’t have a blender, then you can use a coffee grinder or buy ready-made oatmeal. Add warm, but not boiled milk to the oatmeal, mix everything thoroughly and leave for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, lightly beat the egg in a separate bowl until smooth. Then it should be added to the standing oatmeal-milk mass and mix everything thoroughly - the dough is ready.
You need to fry oatmeal pancakes in a dry, heated frying pan, preferably one that has a non-stick coating. To make the pancakes even, it is better to carefully spoon out the dough, forming a circle. First, the tortilla is fried on one side for 2-3 minutes until bubbles appear on its surface, then turned over to the other side, covered with a lid and fried for another 1 minute.
As a rule, the entire cooking process takes 20-30 minutes.
You can serve oatmeal diet pancakes with strawberries, raisins and honey.
They go well with tea, coffee or milk.
The recipe for American banana pancakes is perhaps the most popular. This ingredient gives the dessert a softer texture and an interesting taste. To make banana pancakes with oatmeal, you need the following ingredients:
- ripe banana;
- eggs - 2 pcs.;
- milk - 50 ml;
- oatmeal - 80 g.
Using a blender, you need to grind the oatmeal to flour, and then mix it with heated milk. While the oatmeal-milk mixture is infused, grind the banana in a blender, after which all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until smooth and add them to the prepared mixture. To make the process easier, all components can be mixed in a blender, but they should be added one at a time.
Diet banana pancakes are fried in a dry frying pan with a non-stick coating. To ensure an even shape of the pancakes, it is best to spoon out the dough using a tablespoon. Fry the pancakes on each side for 2 minutes until a caramel color forms, without covering them with a lid. The fire should be medium. You can serve banana pancakes with honey and fruit, and it is best to wash them down with milk.

How to make chocolate sauce

Tip two. It is better to use a non-stick frying pan for pancakes. Then grease with oil only before the first batch of pancakes, and then without oil.
Tip three. As the pancakes cook, the batter in the bowl will thicken, so add milk to the batter as needed.
