Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 teaspoons Vegetable oil or cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the applesauce, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Mix until the wet ingredients are thoroughly blended.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or cooking spray.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading it slightly with the back of a spoon if needed.
Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
