Ingredients

    1 ½ cup whole wheat flour
    ½ cup oats, not instant
    ½ teaspoon baking soda
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    tiny pinch of kosher salt
    1 teaspoon Splenda
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 eggs
    1 ½ cup 1% milk
    ½ cup applesauce, unsweetened

Tips

Get creative with your toppings! I like mine with 1 tablespoon of apple but and a bit banana and apple slices. Whatever you add, be sure to log it if you are tracking your intake!


Directions

1) In a medium sized bowl, mix dry ingredients and stir lightly until incorporated.

2) Use a separate bowl to whisk together the wet ingredients and then add the wet to dry stirring just until the batter comes together. It will be slightly denser than the typical pancake batter due to the oats.

3) Use a 1/3 measuring cup to dole out each portion and cook the pancakes over medium heat on a non-stick griddle or pan until the edges set and bubble start to appear. *If you would like, you can top the batter with ultra thin apple or banana slices to let the fruit caramelize when flipped. This was not added to the calorie count.

4) At this point you can either put the pancakes into a warm oven to hold until serving or place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment to be frozen and stored for later.

Serving Size: Makes roughly 12 3-4 inch pancakes.
