About the bake
We've developed a pancake recipe which is low in calories. This low calorie pancake recipe is so easy to make and keeps the waistline at bay. We've substituted some of the milk of a traditional pancake with water and we've used a low cal spray (1 cal per spray) instead of oil or butter to grease the pan.
Method
Step 1:
In a jug, combine the milk and a little bit of water.
Step 2:
Sift the flour into a bowl and make a well in the middle. Break the 2 eggs into it. Begin whisking the eggs whilst incorporating some flour as go.
Step 3:
Form a smooth batter by gradually add the milk and water mixture. Whisk until this happens.
Step 4:
Heat a frying pan over a high heat with 2-3 sprays of 1 calorie spray until hot. Using a ladle, put 2 tbsp of batter in the centre of the pan.
Step 5:
Check when edges become loose and the batter has solidified, turn the pancake over (flip it if you dare!) and cook on the other side until golden.
Step 6:
We've topped ours with strawberries and raspberries for a slimming treat.

Recipe Reviews
wish i read the reviews first. so watery, couldn’t hold form. ended up making one large crepe
Ratios are off and the pancakes don’t cook well.
Stuck to the pan and was basically an omelet
Too much liquid. Mixture stuck to non-stick pan and ended like mush. Got thrown in the bin and made my usual pancake recipe. Very disappointed.
This is regular pancake...there is nothing low calorie in this.
Ues protein powders instead of flour
