Healthy Turmeric Pancakes

 

A delicious and healthy way to start your day: Turmeric Pancakes

 

For many people, pancakes are a comfort food. They are often seen as unhealthy because they are made with refined flour and eggs. However, there are ways to make pancakes healthier. One way is by using turmeric. Turmeric is a spice that has many health benefits. Some of these benefits include reducing inflammation, boosting brain function, and fighting depression.

 

Another way to make pancakes healthier is by using whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour. Whole wheat flour is more nutritious because it contains more fiber, vitamins, and minerals than all-purpose flour. It also has a lower glycemic index, which means it won’t cause your blood sugar to spike as much as all-purpose flour.

 

You can also add healthy toppings to your pancakes to increase their nutritional value. Some good topping options include fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, maple syrup, shredded coconut, lemon curd, or vegan yogurt.

 

Now that we’ve gone over some of the ways you can make pancakes healthier, let’s get to the recipe card! This recipe makes 6 small pancakes, or keep reading to learn more about these healthy turmeric pancakes.

What even is turmeric?

Turmeric is a type of ginger that is commonly used in Indian cuisine. It has a slightly peppery, mustard-like flavor and is often used as a spice or coloring agent. Curcumin is the main active ingredient in turmeric and is responsible for its distinctive yellow color. Curcumin has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Why would I want to put it in my pancakes?

The answer is simple—because it’s delicious! Turmeric adds a unique flavor to these pancakes that you just can’t get from traditional businesses. But that’s not all; curcumin has also been shown to improve brain function, lower the risk of heart disease, and even fight cancer. So not only do these pancakes taste great, but they’re also good for you!

 

Are these pancakes vegan?

Yes! This recipe is completely vegan as long as you use nondairy milk instead of cow’s milk.

 

What if I don’t have ground turmeric?

If you don’t have ground turmeric on hand, you can use fresh turmeric root instead. Just grate 1-2 teaspoons of fresh turmeric into the pancake batter.

 

Can I freeze leftover pancakes?

Yes! These pancakes freeze really well. Just place them in a freezer-safe bag or container and store them for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to eat them, simply thaw them overnight in the fridge or heat them up in the microwave.
