Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Cooking oil or melted butter
- 1 for greasing the pan Cooking spray or additional oil
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and cooking oil or melted butter until smooth.
Step 3
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until the batter is just combined. Be careful not to overmix; lumps are fine.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Step 5
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the heated skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread slightly, if needed.
Step 6
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as necessary between batches.
Step 8
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, a dollop of yogurt, or a drizzle of nut butter.
