Ingredients

Units Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup (188g) unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup (60g) unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups (143g) old fashioned rolled oats, gluten free if desired
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For Cooking

  • Olive oil, for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: Add all of the wet and dry ingredients to a blender and blend on high until completely smooth, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Let the batter rest in the blender while you heat your pan. If the batter is too thick, add a few extra tablespoons of almond milk to loosen it.
  2. Heat the pan: Lightly coat a griddle or non-stick skillet with olive oil, coconut oil, or vegan butter and place over medium heat. Allow the pan to get hot but not smoking.
  3. Cook the pancakes: Pour about 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2 to 4 minutes until the pancakes puff up slightly and bubbles form along the edges. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
  4. Flip and finish cooking: Carefully flip the pancakes and cook the other side until golden brown. If the pan starts to smoke, reduce the heat, wipe clean, add more oil, and continue cooking the remaining batter.
  5. Serve: Makes approximately 6 pancakes. Serve warm, ideally 2 pancakes per serving for 3 servings total.

Notes

  • If the batter is too thick, adding a bit more almond milk will help achieve the right consistency.
  • Use gluten-free rolled oats if you need a gluten-free option.
  • Adjust spices like cinnamon and nutmeg to taste for a more or less intense flavor.
  • Cooking on medium to medium-low heat helps prevent burning and ensures even cooking.
  • These pancakes can be served with additional maple syrup, fresh fruit, or yogurt for extra flavor and nutrition.
