Are Pancakes Healthy?

Your body uses carbohydrates as a primary source of fuel, so this nutrient is important. But most nutritionists suggest that you get your daily carbs from the most healthy sources. Pancakes usually don't fall into that category.

Pancakes and pancake mixes are generally made from enriched flour. Enriched foods are those that have had nutrients added during the manufacturing process. In most cases, the nutrients (like vitamins and minerals) are stripped away and then some of them are added back in during processing.

So are enriched foods bad for you? Not necessarily, but when you eat enriched bread products you short-change yourself out of diet-friendly fiber and other nutrients.

The enriched flour in pancakes along with the added sugar and syrup is likely to raise your blood sugar quickly and then leave you hungry shortly afterward.​

Also, if you buy a pancake mix, you may get a dose of trans fat with your meal. Some brands include partially hydrogenated oils (trans fats). Health experts recommend that you limit or completely avoid foods with trans fat.
