Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Low-fat buttermilk
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Canola oil
- 0.5 cup Pure maple syrup
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until evenly mixed.
Step 2
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, and canola oil until well combined.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir 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. Lightly coat the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Step 5
For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Flip the pancakes carefully with a spatula and cook the other side until golden brown, about 2 minutes more.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a warm plate or oven to keep them warm while cooking the remaining batter.
Step 8
Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with pure maple syrup.
