Syn Free American Style Pancakes | Slimming World

The most delicious, Fluffy Syn Free American Style Pancakes that you will ever make.

The most delicious, Fluffy Syn Free American Style Pancakes that you will ever make. A perfect breakfast or dessert. Gluten Free, Vegetarian, Slimming World and Weight Watchers friendly | SYNS: 0 (HEB) | CALORIES: 324 | WEIGHT WATCHERS SMART POINTS: 4 | www.slimmingeats.com

Living in Canada means Maple Syrup is everywhere and pancakes for breakfast or any time of day for that matter is a pretty common occurrence.

However regular pancakes are pretty synful on Slimming World, so I just had to create a recipe for American Style Pancakes that I could enjoy on a regular basis and not break the daily syn bank.

The recipe for these amazing light and fluffy American Style Pancakes was one of my very first recipes when I started my blog (all the way back in 2009), and from there followed all the other variations you now see out there, such as Magic Pancakes etc.

In traditional fluffy American Pancakes, buttermilk is very commonly used, it gives them a lovely flavour. In this recipe, the use of plain Greek Yoghurt gives the same result, while still keeping these syn free.

Don’t be tempted to use fat-free flavoured yoghurts. Sometimes the flavouring in those can be a little overpowering and artificial tasting. You can add flavour to these American Style Pancakes by the fruit etc you add as a topping. Greek Yoghurt is also a preferred choice because it is a lot thicker than regular yoghurt.

The key to the fluffiness is the baking powder. You may be wondering why I haven’t synned the baking powder in this recipe. Baking Powder is generally synned at 0.5 syns per 2 teaspoons, but in this recipe, we literally only use 3/4 of a tsp (less than 2 calories), which makes the syns so negligible it isn’t worth synning it.

These American Style Pancakes go really well with any kind of fruit, but my favourite choice is speed berries such as blueberries and raspberries. If you don’t want to use syns on any toppings, go for fruit which will pair well with these.

Of course, no American Style Pancakes are complete without Syrup and for me, it has to be pure 100% maple syrup, not the artificial or sugar-free stuff.  Maple Syrup is only 2 syns per tablespoon and it is well worth those 2 syns just to have that delicious drizzle of syrup over your pancakes.

American Style Pancakes are commonly served with crispy bacon if you order them in any diner across the majority of the states in the USA, and it’s a similar way to enjoy them here in Canada too.

You could easily follow that tradition by serving alongside some syn free bacon, or if you want that crispiness there are some streaky bacon out there, that are not too high in syns. I regularly buy some which are only 2.5 syns for 2 slices and oven bake a whole tray of it in the oven till nice and crispy. The kids and hubby love their American Pancakes with bacon.

Syn Free American Style Pancakes | Slimming World

Yield: SERVES 1
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

The most delicious, Fluffy Syn Free American Style Pancakes that you will ever make.

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 40g of oatmeal/oats (HEb)
  • 1/4 cup (4 tbs ) of fat free Greek yoghurt 
  • 1 tsp of vanilla extract
  • 3/4 tbs of sukin:1 or other sweetener of choice
  • 3/4 teaspoon of baking powder
  • cooking oil spray (I like to use coconut for these)

Instructions

  1. Add the oats to a blender and grind into a fine powder.
  2. Place in a bowl with the eggs, yoghurt and other ingredients and mix to combine, Allow to sit for about 10 mins, just for the oats to soak in some of the liquid.
  3. Spray a non stick crepe pan placed over a low heat (make sure you don’t have the heat too high) with some cooking oil spray and cook the pancakes until you start to see bubble apears on the surface (I use 2.5 tbs of batter per pancakes, which gave me 8 pancakes) and then carefully flip over. A spatula should slide under easily, if it doesn't they are not quite done. 
  4. I cook two pancakes at a time, so that there is enough room on the pan to easily flip over. 
  5. Repeat with the mixture 
  6. Serve the pancakes with fruit or toppings of choice. 
  7. Enjoy!!! – these are delicious!!

    For some reason these has no rise for me even after adding the baking soda & baking powder. Disappointed 🙁

  11. Sybil Faulty

    November 21, 2016 at 7:07 am

    The recipe as stated shows 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp baking powder, possibly one of these could be the baking soda mentioned? They look delicious, can’t wait to make them for breakfast so will have them for dinner!

    Is it 0.5 syns for the whole batch or for each pancake? x

  15. Shevy (Slimming Eats)

    whole batch 🙂

    I was going to make yest but then weighed out to find no vanilla essence. I googled that lemon rind was a substitute, so grated some in.

    I decided to go shopping however as really wanted to try them and worried that not having vanilla essence would ruin it.

    I bought vanilla essence and added it to the mix (including lemon rind). They were gorgeous!!!!! I don’t think I can eat another thing today as sooooo full. Really really good.

    I think because I liked the lemon taste I will save my sins (tomorrow!!!;)) I will use lemon juice and sweetener rather than use my sins on maple syrup.

    WHY WONT COMPUTER LET ME RATE 5 STAR ONLY 4? You may want to look into that “slimming eats”

    If I could give these pancakes more stars I would. They have saved my Saturday breakfast as sugary cereals were always my Saturday breakfast treat. Go and make them now!

    Made for the first time this morning and they’re so yummy! Will definitely be making again very soon. So nice to have a change and switch it up from my usual eggs and yogurt/fruit or healthy extra muesli, fruit and yogurt.

  21. Lolly

    August 28, 2017 at 4:06 am

    I make these pancakes on a regular basis for my instagram blog and they are just amazing!! I either have them with bacon and sugar free maple syrup or fruit and yoghurt-both are just as good! Thanks for such a great recipe. L x

    I have been meaning to buy sukrin for some time but at the moment I only have Stevia?. Will it still be a tablespoon or slightly less as it’s a lighter finer granule? Thanks.

  23. Shevy (Slimming Eats)

    September 2, 2017 at 12:34 am

    I think you need less stevia to sugar ratio, where as sukrin is an equal ratio to sugar.

  24. Laura Lawton

    100% the best and my all time go to pancake recipe can’t not recommend enough. Wish I could leave more than 5 stars

    Hi, I was wondering if you could please tell me if the calories is per pancake or for one serving/the whole thing? I would really like it if u could get back to me ASAP since I would love to make these in the morning. By the way they look amazing!
    Lauren

  29. Shevy (Slimming Eats)

    Hi Lauren, this recipe serves 1 person, so is for the whole lot 🙂 – anytime you are unsure, just look at how many the recipe serves, the nutritional information will always be for 1 of those servings unless otherwise stated :). Hope that helps and enjoy 🙂

    January 29, 2018 at 9:30 am

    These are lovely, thank you! I’ve just bought one of those tiny food processors and the recipe fits perfectly in it. I’ve been trying out various slimming world recipes and these are definitely the best, I had them with fruit syrup (from the choc shot people).

    Do you think these would keep and could then be warmed up? Just that my husband works away during the week and I pack healthy food for him to take with him (he has access to a microwave at work).

  31. Shevy (Slimming Eats)

    January 29, 2018 at 11:02 am

    Hi Lisa, these are perfect for freezing, I just pop on a pan on a low heat until heated through. Hope that helps.

  32. Dan Jenkins

    February 4, 2018 at 6:40 am

    Made these this morning and they were great! Was wondering if you separated the eggs and whisked up the whites, then stored them in to the mixture at the end you may add enough air that you didn’t need the baking powder to get the rise. Will try it next time.

  33. Shevy (Slimming Eats)

    February 4, 2018 at 3:05 pm

    Hi Dan, these definitely need the baking powder and to be honest the syns for the baking powder are negligible. 2 tsp of baking powder are only 0.5 syns and we only use 3/4 of a tsp.

  34. Clare Cooper

    February 8, 2018 at 7:03 am

    Brilliant, easy recipe! Will be making again

  35. Michelle Barras

    February 11, 2018 at 12:10 pm

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ made these for brunch today and served with smoked bacon, blueberries and a drizzle of maple syrup. Absolutely yummy and guilt free. Will be making them on Tuesday for pancake day. Thank you Siobhan for another fab recipe

  36. Amanda

    February 13, 2018 at 12:37 pm

    These are so amazing! I make them a lot and they always turn out perfectly. I just put all the ingredients in a jug and mix together with a balloon whisk. Perfect! Thank you for all of your hard work ❤️

  37. Gemma Rogers

    February 13, 2018 at 2:49 pm

    My goodness! Just scoffed the lot with Tbsp of maple syrup and one of Choc Shot! Delish! Cannot move now! Will definitely make again. Thanks for saving Pancake Day for me! Xxxx

    February 21, 2018 at 5:05 am

    This recipe is great. I’ve tried so many pancake recipes and they all come out very eggy. I didn’t add any sweetener to mine as I dont like them sweet and they were sweet enough with mixed berries and 1tsp of choc shot. I no longer need to feel like I’m missing out when the kids have pancakes! Thanks for sharing this recipe!

  39. Shevy (Slimming Eats)

    you can, the batter might become a bit thick though, so you might need a to loosen the mixture slightly.

    April 3, 2019 at 1:09 pm

    Hello. I love these with almond extract but was just wondering if they are acceptable on a SP day? I served them with Greek yogurt and destroyed frozen berries. I have made them so often that I know the recipe off by heart!!! Great pancakes!!

    Hi Louise- yes they are fine for an SP day as plain fat free Greek yoghurt can now be enjoyed on Extra Easy SP 🙂

    Tried to make these just now and the batter is like thick porridge and it’s just burning in the pan. What am I doing wrong?

    are you using ready brek? If so, you need to use oats, or you won’t get the right consistency. Also, make sure each ingredient is measured accurately, as any slight variation will make the consistency of the batter off. You can add an additional tbs of yoghurt at a time if needed. But mine are always perfect when measuring everything correctly.

    Hi there can you reheat these in the toaster on a low heat by any chance? Great recipes by the way Xx

    yep in the toaster or on a pan over a low heat is fine to heat these up. 🙂

    Absolutely delicious, made these a few times now and they feel like a real treat. I even have a little golden syrup which for me is the best topping! Great recipe!

    I’ve just this week started slimming world and today really fancied pancakes. I made these and I’m pleased to say I’ve just demolished them!

    They satisfy in appearance and texture as well as taste! I served mine with some strawberries and a little sweetener but next time I’ll definitely buy some pure maple syrup and syn it as then I’ll really feel like I’m eating American pancakes!

    Thank you!

    I can’t wait to make these. Do you think if I made a batch I could put some in the freezer, defrost some overnight and out them in the toaster in the morning to save time?
    Thanks xxxx

    Can I use Coconut flour instead of oats. X

  71. Siobhan (Slimming Eats)

    February 11, 2020 at 11:08 am

    Hi unfortunately not in this recipe, the ratio would be way off and wouldn’t work well. Plus coconut flour is synned and not a healthy extra b. If you check out this recipe it uses coconut flour. http://www.slimmingeats.com/blog/cottage-cheese-pancakes

    Pancake day, my hubby and son wanted me to make some, first time making these we all loved them. I had them with yogurt and blueberries they lemon juice and sugar. I could only eat three. Will definitely be a regular in our house. Thank you

    I’ve made pancakes before with a similar recipe and they never looked like yours. I can’t use fat free greek yoghurt as am lactose intolerant and they only have full fat plain or soya based yogurt. Any ideas what might work?

  75. Siobhan (Slimming Eats)

    June 27, 2020 at 4:21 pm

    If you can get a Greek style dairy free yoghurt it should be okay, you need the thicker yoghurt or the batter is too runny. Otherwise, mix all other ingredients first and add the yoghurt last until correct consistency. Ensure you don’t use ready brek too, must be proper oats for the best result.

    Could you use “ready brek” the ground oat porridge generally for kids instead of blending regular oats?

    Thanks Paul.

    Can i use. Natural Yogurt or does it have to bd greek?

  78. Siobhan (Slimming Eats)

    July 7, 2020 at 9:18 am

    it’s best to use Greek yoghurt for these, as it’s a thicker consistency so yields a better pancake.

    These are amazing!! So tasty and super easy to make. Served these with mixed berries and a spoonful of ice cream for dessert. These will be made on a regular basis especially since my fussy 10 year old son enjoyed them as well

    my kids prefer these over standard pancakes now, so glad to hear they are hit with your family too.

    Hi just wonderd how this is 0.5 syn when 1tbsp of sweetener is 1/2 syn? Shouldn’t it be 2 syns then?

  83. Siobhan (Slimming Eats)

    September 16, 2020 at 4:32 pm

    nope, it’s still 0.5 syns, you are only using 3/4 (3 quarters) of a tablespoon of sweetener, so therefore not synnned. If you have maple syrup drizzled over, then that of course is additional 🙂

    I did these tonight for brekky tomorrow. How do you manage to get 8 pancakes I only managed 4. Mixture was quite thick so wouldn’t spend in the pan.

  85. Siobhan (Slimming Eats)

    September 30, 2020 at 3:26 pm

    You probably just made bigger pancakes which is perfectly fine. I use 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake as I like a nice stack for my toppings and maple syrup. Also ensure you have measurements correct for the mix if it’s really thick, it should be spoonable, you don’t spread the batter like with crepes, these are American style. Just checking you also didn’t use ready brek? I don’t using recommend ready brek, it must be pure oats or you batter consistency. will be off.
