MAKE A CLASSIC HEALTHIER

LEMON AND SUGAR

Per pancake: Calories, 19; saturated fat, 0.2g; sugar, 6.2g; salt, 0g THE classic combinatio­n of lemon juice and sugar may be a dentist’s nightmare (sugar fuels oral bacteria and citric acid erodes tooth enamel), but lemon is a rich source of vitamin C, which helps you to absorb iron — one lemon contains half of your recommende­d daily amount.

Tap your spoon to sprinkle on the sugar — 1 tsp should be more than adequate per pancake and within health guidelines (maximum 7 tsp a day for adults) — and it is only once a year.
