They also have fiber (about 2.3g) for better fullness and digestion, but the fiber is still relatively modest, so pairing with fruit or yogurt helps. On the caution side, pancakes can be higher in sodium (about 554mg) and saturated fat (about 1.66g) depending on the recipe and toppings. They also contain cholesterol (about 46mg). The good news: when you choose the right portion and balance your plate, pancakes can fit well in your eating routine.","healthier_tips":["Keep portions in check: aim for about 1 small to medium pancake per snack or as part of breakfast, not a whole stack every time.","Balance your meal: add protein (eggs, milk, yogurt) and fiber (banana, berries, or a side of fruit) to stay fuller longer.","Watch toppings: go easy on syrup and sweet spreads; try fresh fruit or a lighter drizzle instead.","If you\u2019re having pancakes for breakfast, pair with water or unsweetened drinks to avoid extra sugar.","Since sodium can add up, choose less salty add-ons (like processed fillings) and avoid very salty sides."]},"data_quality":{"source":"DOST-FNRI Philippine Food Composition Tables","source_code":"ph_fct","daily_values_reference":"RENI 2002","notes":["Values are estimates per 100g edible portion.","Actual nutrients may vary by preparation and variety."]},"links":{"self":"https:\/\/api.juanutrisyon.info\/api\/foods\/pancake?agent=true"}}}
