WALNUT PANCAKES to make in 5 minutes, the perfect idea for breakfast or snack, super soft and delicious, amazing protein-packed sweets.
The WALNUT PANCAKES are super fluffy, fragrant and delicious, and they also give you that right energy to face the day thanks to the walnuts that enrich the batter and make them a bit more protein-packed.
I love them because they’re stress-free to prepare: a few ingredients, one bowl, and into the pan. In five minutes, you’ll have a stack of pancakes ready to enjoy, and I assure you they disappear in a flash! The best part is that walnut pancakes go well with everything: you can serve them with honey, maple syrup, chocolate spread, or, if you want to keep it light, even just with yogurt and fresh fruit.
They’re perfect for when you have breakfast guests or want to treat yourself on a Sunday morning: bring these soft and fragrant pancakes to the table, and the ‘wow’ effect is guaranteed. And if you prepare them for children’s snacks, maybe add some chocolate chips to the batter: what a treat!
Another plus? You can easily customize them: if you prefer a light version, use little sugar and pair with fresh fruit; if you want to make them more indulgent, add a drizzle of Nutella or pistachio cream. And if you end up making too many, no problem: they keep well even the next day, just heat them slightly in the pan or microwave, and they’re fluffy as freshly made.
In short, walnut pancakes are those easy and quick sweets that solve breakfast and put you in a good mood.
