Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Unsweetened apple sauce
- 1 whole Large egg
- 0.75 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 medium Apple, peeled, cored, and finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter or coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and ground cinnamon.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened apple sauce, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 4
Fold in the finely chopped apple pieces into the batter.
Step 5
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with a portion of the unsalted butter or coconut oil.
Step 6
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, using a spatula to spread the batter if necessary to create a round shape.
Step 7
Cook each pancake for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or coconut oil to the skillet as needed.
Step 9
Serve warm. These pancakes can be enjoyed on their own or topped with additional apple slices and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
