Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup Egg Beaters (or equivalent egg substitute)
- 0.75 cup skim milk
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the Egg Beaters, skim milk, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter into a circle, if needed.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancake carefully using a spatula, and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, reapplying non-stick cooking spray as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite low-fat toppings, such as fresh fruit, sugar-free syrup, or a dollop of low-fat yogurt.
