It would seem that the high calorie content of pancakes is beyond doubt and does not leave this popular, but terribly dangerous delicacy for the hips and waist, a chance to get into the list of dietary products. Flour, eggs, butter, as well as fatty sour cream and condensed milk, which are often poured over baked food, turn it into a real high-calorie bomb! Add here a far from dietary method of making pancakes, and it turns out that they are blocked from the menu of healthy food advocates. Or is it still not?

Pancake calories...

But are baked “suns” so terrible as they are painted by lovers of various diets? Pancake is a thin thing in the literal and figurative sense, and its calorie content per 100 g changes more often than the weather in spring. If you start the dough on fat milk, you will get one result, on dietary kefir - another. If you decide, according to the old merchant tradition, to fill a treat with red caviar or sprinkle with honey, get ready to count the extra centimeters at the waist; but decide to get by with a sour apple grated in puree, and it may well turn out that the scales in the morning will not upset you with a couple of extra kilos. In addition, flour is of great importance: for example, the calorie content of fragrant buckwheat pancakes will be lower than that of wheat pancakes and higher than that of corn pancakes.

In a word, arm yourself with a calculator and start counting. Or use the tables below.

Not every housewife will have a kitchen scale at hand at the right time to measure 100 g. In this case, how to calculate the calorie content of 1 pancake? Focus on its size and thickness. So, thin openwork pancakes with a diameter of about 20 cm weigh from 30 to 40 g, and lush yeast pancakes - about 60 g.

Calorie content depending on the recipe

Not only that, the calorie content of pancakes on the water is the lowest on this list. Take carbonated mineral water instead of ordinary drinking, and the “sunny” treat will become more magnificent, and in addition, it will acquire small holes, the same as those obtained with soda. And tasty, and healthy, and the weight is safe.

Calorie content depending on the filling

Filling	Calories per 100 g

Pork	300-490
Ham and cheese	382
Cheese	348
Red caviar	324
Salmon	311
Beef	194-260
beef and rice	250
Chicken and mushrooms	240
Eggs	222

Liver	170-197
Chicken	165-265
Cabbage	117-147

Honey	350
Condensed milk	206
Jam	185-245

It goes without saying that the calorie content of pancakes with cottage cheese will increase if you decide to add raisins and dried apricots to the filling, as housewives often do. You can reduce the nutritional value of pastries with meat by mixing minced pork with leaner beef. The satiety of the fruit filling will depend entirely on its components. Well, if you want to accurately calculate the calorie content of pancakes with liver, consider who exactly owned the semi-finished product. Goose is considered the fattest, it is not in vain that it is used to make foie gras. In second place is duck, then turkey, chicken, lamb and beef.

…and ways to reduce it

Chlorine necessary for the formation and secretion of hydrochloric acid in the body.
Cobalt is part of vitamin B12. Activates the enzymes of fatty acid metabolism and folic acid metabolism.
Manganese participates in the formation of bone and connective tissue, is part of the enzymes involved in the metabolism of amino acids, carbohydrates, catecholamines; necessary for the synthesis of cholesterol and nucleotides. Insufficient consumption is accompanied by growth retardation, disorders in the reproductive system, increased fragility of bone tissue, disorders of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.

Add some proteins. Protein contains almost no fat, it consists of 90% water. The most high-calorie and fatty part of the egg is the yolk. Protein weight averages 25-27 g.
Mix whole wheat flour with wholemeal flour. Calorie content of wheat flour - 342 kcal, wholemeal flour - 280 kcal. In this case, the total energy value of the dish will not change, but pancakes will become more useful. This flour has more fiber and vitamins.

Use a non-stick pan. This will immediately reduce the number of calories in pancakes, reduce the fat content of pancakes at times and add flavor to them, because nothing spoils pancakes like excess oil in a pan.
Cunning. As a rule, women are more afraid not of the calorie content of what they eat, but of the quantity. Therefore, cook pancakes as thin as possible. And then 3 or 5 translucent pancakes will no longer seem so safe. And if you put them in a small saucer, then the portion will seem even larger.
