Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon + 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 2 tablespoons applesauce
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Whisk together to combine.
  • Make a well in the center of dry mixture and add milk, egg, applesauce and vanilla.
  • Stir together until just combined.
    TIP:  If your batter looks a bit too thick, use a bit of milk to thin it out to your desired consistency.
    TIP:  You only want to stir ingredients together until dry ingredients are no longer visible.  Stir too much and you risk having tough, instead of tender, pancakes!
  • Heat griddle to 350 degrees and pour 1/3 cup batter onto heated griddle for each pancake.
  • When bubbles no longer appear on pancake surface, flip to cook other side until lightly browned.
