using fresh strawberries, a whole grain pancake, and a sweetened yogurt in place of cream makes for a satisfying, low sugar desert! using fresh strawberries, a whole grain pancake, and a sweetened yogurt in place of cream makes for a satisfying, low sugar desert!
Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    2 4" pancakes (I make a batch of whole grain pancakes and stash them in the freezer for occasions like this)
    4 oz of fresh strawberries, sliced
    1 oz plain low-fat yogurt
    1 tbsp sugar free vanilla syrup

Tips

Traditional strawberry shortcake uses a fat-rich biscuit or pound cake, adds sweetened strawberries, and then tops it off with whipped, sweetened, heavy cream. This recipe lightens the calories and adds fiber for a satisfying dish with just the right amount of sweet.


Directions

Heat pancakes in microwave or toaster
mix vanilla syrup into yogurt
stack pancakes on a plate
put strawberries on pancakes
top with yogurt (in place of whipped cream)

Serving Size: Makes 1 serving
