Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Plant-based milk (such as almond, oat, or soy)
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Grated apple (one medium apple, peeled if desired)
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil or vegan butter (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the plant-based milk, applesauce, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Fold in the grated apple until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with coconut oil or vegan butter.
Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, sliced apples, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
