Apple Cinnamon Pancakes
Ingredients
¾ cup unsweetened apple sauce
2 large eggs (sub flax egg)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/4 cup almond milk
1 ½ cup old fashioned rolled oats
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 apple, cored and diced
Method
1. Add everything listed above (except cored apple) to a high speed blender and blend on high until completely incorporated and smooth. About 30 seconds to 1 minute.
2. If the batter is too thick, add a few tablespoons of milk to soften.
3. Lightly coat a non stick pan with oil spray and turn to medium heat.
4. Once pan is hot, add about 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake and cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Flip once the edges start to fluff up.
5. You may need to reduce the heat half way through making all the pancakes as the pan will only get hotter and hotter.
6. OPTIONAL - you can either add the diced apples directly into the batter and cook the pancakes with them inside or you can add them to the pan and cook them down with cinnamon and water as a yummy garnish
