Low-Fat Pancakes – 25-Minute Recipe
These light, fluffy pancakes use a minimal amount of fat for a tender crumb and an even cook. The simple batter combines egg, milk, and flour with just a pinch of salt, sugar, and oil, then rests briefly for extra fluffiness, making a low‑fat breakfast that doesn’t sacrifice flavor.
