Making pancakes for kids can be a fun and rewarding experience, but it can also be challenging to find a recipe that is both delicious and healthy. Many traditional pancake recipes rely on large amounts of sugar and syrup, which can be unhealthy for children. Fortunately, there are many ways to make pancakes without syrup that are still packed with flavor and nutrition. These recipes often use natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, and they incorporate healthy ingredients like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. With a little creativity, you can easily make pancakes that your kids will love without sacrificing their health.
Here are our top 4 tried and tested recipes!
NO SYRUP PANCAKES
Syrup is sticky, therefore, I HATE IT! That's not why my mom and I whipped up this recipe, though. We wanted pancakes and with only a third the milk a recipe called for, we improvised and made my new breakfast buddies.

Steps:
- Mix Dry in a large bowl and wet in a small bowl (or the other way around if you prefer, I don't really care). Add everything to the bigger bowl and mix till slightly lumpy, most instructions say 50 turns.
- Cook in a pan or on a griddle at medium heat until golden brown.
KIDS NO SYRUP PANCAKES
These pancakes are the size of small hands and are delicious without a lot of syrup (corn syrup). I make these every Sunday morning while watching the Food channel (our Sunday morning "lazy time" tradition), and the kids love them. With the inclusion of cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and brown sugar, it's a little bit of heaven. I add one (1) egg whether or not the pancake mix calls for it. Egg whites contains protein and all the amino acids needed for a strong growing body.

Steps:
- Note: Because there is sugar in the mix, your pancakes will cook fast on the outside and will burn without taking precautions. The heat should be lower than your typical setting to avoid burning. The pancake at the recommended temperature will be medium to dark brown due to the sugar caramelization. Check the middle to make sure it's cooked throughout.
- Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Heat a hot plate to 300°F to 310°F/ Heat pan to medium.
- Grease hot plate or pan prior to adding mix.
- Use a tablespoon to scoop mixture onto cooking surface.
- Collect pancakes.
- Serve.

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: Ripen bananas are sweeter and have a more intense flavor, making them ideal for pancakes.
- Mash the bananas thoroughly: The smoother the bananas, the better the pancakes will be. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the bananas until they are completely smooth.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Cook the pancakes over medium heat: Medium heat will help the pancakes cook evenly without burning them.
- Flip the pancakes only once: Flipping the pancakes too often will make them dry and tough. Flip the pancakes only once, when bubbles form around the edges.
- Serve the pancakes immediately: Pancakes are best served immediately after they are cooked. If you need to keep them warm, place them in a warm oven or on a warming tray.
