Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Grated apple (about 1 small apple)
- Cooking spray
- Maple syrup (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the almond milk, egg, applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing as it can make the pancakes dense.
Gently fold in the grated apple to distribute it evenly throughout the batter.
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Using a 1/4 cup measurement, pour the batter onto the heated skillet to form individual pancakes.
Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, lightly spraying the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired, or enjoy as is for a lower-calorie option.
