Made with a blend of all-purpose flour and rolled oats, these fluffy pancakes are infused with aromatic cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of honey for natural sweetness.

Perfectly golden and ready in just 25 minutes, these pancakes are a healthy, satisfying treat that pairs beautifully with a drizzle of maple syrup, creamy Greek yogurt, or crisp apple slices. Whether you're meal-prepping for the week or treating yourself to a weekend brunch, these low-fat apple pie pancakes make every bite feel like a celebration of autumn.
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Mix together until well blended.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, low-fat milk, egg white, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the grated apple, distributing evenly throughout the batter.
Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading into a circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set.
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, re-spraying the pan with cooking spray as needed.
Serve warm with your favorite low-fat toppings, such as a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or fresh apple slices.
