GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Fat Tuesday is coming up this week which means it's time to eat some paczkis. But lets face it, they aren't the healthiest treat. Registered dietitian Shanthi Appelo has a healthier mix on the tasty treat.

Paczki-inspired pancakes feature similar flavors as a regular paczki, but with fewer calories and saturated fat.

You may have the ingredients in your house already. A 3/4 cup of flour, a cup and a half of milk of any kind, two eggs, a teaspoon of vanilla and a quarter teaspoon of salt.

Combine all the ingredients and then cook it in a pan for about two minutes on each side.
