Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 300 ml Milk
- 3 large Eggs
- 100 grams Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0 Cooking spray or additional butter
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2
In another bowl, beat the eggs lightly, then add milk and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Step 3
Pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just moistened. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense batter.
Step 4
Fold in the unsweetened applesauce until the batter is smooth but still slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Allow the batter to rest for about 5-10 minutes, which helps achieve fluffier pancakes.
Step 6
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
Step 7
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 8
Flip and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Step 9
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more cooking spray or butter to the skillet as needed.
Step 10
Serve the sugar-free eierkuchen warm, with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, chopped nuts, or a dollop of yogurt for added flavor and texture.
