In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes mix and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Stir well to incorporate the baking powder evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup of water, 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce, 2 large egg whites, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to ensure the pancakes remain fluffy.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray.
For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Gently flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, remembering to respray the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your choice of low-fat toppings like fresh berries or a small drizzle of pure maple syrup.
