Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 teaspoons Vegetable oil or cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine the applesauce, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Mix until the wet ingredients are thoroughly blended.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or cooking spray.
Step 5
Scoop about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading it slightly with the back of a spoon if needed.
Step 6
Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 7
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Step 8
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
