Anna's Family Kitchen was inspired by my love of food and desire to feed my family healthy, home cooked wholesome meals that are beautifully presented and appealing but don’t require hours of prep in the kitchen.
Sugar Free American Pancakes with Any Fruits
Serve these sugar free American Pancakes with any fruits you can lay your hands on and Greek Yogurt. American Pancakes traditionally have sugar added to the batter but served with fresh sweet fruits and raspberry coulis (which I have sweetened with maple syrup) they don’t need the sugar. This is one of my childrens’ favourite breakfasts. Even with the maple syrup in the coulis and the natural sugars in the fruit, this breakfast still has a quarter of the sugar they would get through a packet cereal serving. Much tastier too! The pancakes can be made in advance, kept in an airtight container and reheated when needed. The coulis will keep in the fridge for up to a week. It’s a great topper for porridge and granola.

Get a large pan hot, wipe with oil or I used spray oil. Drop in three 10cm disks of batter at a time. Turn after two minutes. Give the other side of the pancakes two minutes and then set aside onto a warm plate (mine is from Neptune) until you’re ready to serve.
Top the pancakes with your choice of fruits, the coulis and a dollop of yogurt.
