Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
• 1 large egg white
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
• 1 serving cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the low-fat buttermilk, egg white, vanilla extract, honey, and unsweetened applesauce. Whisk until well-blended.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.

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 look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Flip the pancakes and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.

Step 7

Transfer the pancakes to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm while repeating with the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm, topped with your favorite fruit or low-fat toppings.
