Ingredients
- 2 medium egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

- 1 tablespoon monk sugar (or zero calorie sugar)

- 1 sprinkle zero calorie powdered sweetener
Instructions

Tips & Variations
- Use a non-stick skillet and don’t rush cooking to keep the pancakes fluffy and avoid burning.
- For extra flavor, add a few drops of vanilla extract or cinnamon to the batter.
- Try topping with fresh berries or a dollop of Greek yogurt for a nutritious twist.
Storage
These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave to keep their fluffiness.
How to Serve
Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.
FAQs
Can I use regular sugar instead of monk sugar?
Yes, you can substitute with regular granulated sugar, but this will increase the calorie content.
What if I don’t have self-rising flour?
You can make your own by combining all-purpose flour with baking powder and a pinch of salt. Use about 1/8 cup all-purpose flour plus 1/4 teaspoon baking powder.
