Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 tablespoon Butter or oil for cooking
• 1 tablespoon Monk fruit sweetener (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and optional monk fruit sweetener if using.

Step 2

In another bowl, beat the egg lightly and then add milk, vanilla extract, and unsweetened applesauce. Mix until well combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. It's okay if the batter has small lumps.

Step 4

Let the batter sit for a few minutes while you preheat your non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Add butter or oil to the skillet and swirl to coat. The skillet should be hot but not smoking.

Step 6

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look dry, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

Step 8

Transfer pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter or oil as needed.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of sugar-free syrup, fresh berries, or sliced bananas.
