BEAUTY BOOSTING PANCAKES

Pancakes have a long history, stretching as far back as ancient Greece. They appear in various forms throughout the world, from savoury African injera, to the sweet Finnish dessert pancakes known as lettu.

While pancakes can be savoury, they're more often enjoyed sweet. Here is our take on a slimline beauty boosting pancake, combing taste and health.
