I love pancake day! A day where you eat breakfast for dinner. It is definitely something the whole family can enjoy. Pikelets, crepes, fritters, oat cakes…here I have the 15 BEST healthy pancake recipes so that you can try something new any time of year!

First, the simplest of pancake recipes…two ingredients…egg and mashed banana. Drop into a pan with a spoon, cook for a few minutes each side and Voila!! These are Paleo friendly and dairy-free. Perfect for babies too! I love adding blueberries to the mix, but that’s optional!

This recipe from My Fussy Eater uses my favourite apples. How about some AMAZING Pink Lady pancakes? Yum.

Who doesn’t love carrot cake? These carrot cake oaty pancakes from My Kids Lick the Bowl are sweetened only by fruit making them a super healthy snack.
