Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Low-fat milk (1% or skim)
- 1 large Egg white
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0 as needed Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, egg white, applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing; some lumps are okay.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Step 5
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, re-coating the skillet with cooking spray as needed.
Step 8
Serve warm with your favorite reduced-fat or sugar-free toppings, such as fresh fruit or a drizzle of maple syrup.
