Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 Egg
• 0.5 cup Non-dairy milk (almond, oat, or soy)
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Neutral oil (such as avocado or vegetable oil)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, mix the applesauce, egg, non-dairy milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and oil until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can result in dense pancakes.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of oil or non-stick spray.

Step 5

Once the skillet is hot, scoop 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Spread it slightly to form an even circle.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve warm with your favorite dairy-free toppings, such as additional maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
