The time has come to celebrate Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Day, an epic day when pancake consumption is highly encouraged regardless on the time of the day.

This day is very special to us because we just love pancakes, especially the healthy types, sugar-free and all. As today is all about these delicious fluffy treats, we’ve decided to give you 5 options to inspire you for the rest of the week. The origins of pancakes comes from the ancient Greeks and Romans, who used to make them with wheat flour, olive oil, honey and of course serve them for breakfast. Back then they didn’t have Natvia, but thankfully now you do so you can enjoy pancake day in a healthier way. Although known as a breakfast meal, at Natvia we believe that anytime of the day is a good enough to treat yourself to a nice stack of them.
