About Pancakes, plain, prepared from recipe

Pancakes are the soft, fluffy rounds cooked from a simple batter of flour, milk, egg and a little fat on a hot griddle. From thin crêpes to thick American stacks, they're a breakfast and brunch favorite the world over.

Made from refined flour, the pancake itself is a moderate source of carbohydrate with some protein and calcium from the milk and egg, and is fairly modest in calories plain. What turns a stack into an indulgence is everything that goes on top — butter, syrup, sugar, cream and chocolate.

On their own, pancakes are a fairly neutral base; it's the toppings that decide whether breakfast is light or a dessert in disguise. Wholewheat batter and fruit toppings tip the balance back toward wholesome.
