Ingredients
- 2 cups of whole wheat flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- ½ cup of brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup of milk, or more if required
- ½ cup of applesauce
- 1 tablespoon of vanilla essence
- 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil
Step 1
Combine a delightful mix of whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and a touch of salt in a bowl, whisking them together to create a harmonious blend. Add in the brown sugar, gently incorporating it until it resembles small, pea-sized pieces. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs vigorously before gently folding in the milk, applesauce, and a hint of vanilla extract, creating a luscious concoction.
Step 2
Create a well in the dry ingredients, pouring in the velvety milk mixture, and stirring until everything harmonizes into a smooth batter. Should the batter appear too dense, feel free to splash in a bit more milk to achieve the desired consistency.
Step 3
Prepare a skillet or griddle by generously greasing it with vegetable oil, then heat it on medium-high. Using a steady hand, scoop about 2 tablespoons of the batter onto the sizzling surface. Allow the pancake to cook until the bottom turns a golden brown hue and bubbles playfully dance on the surface, typically taking 2 to 3 minutes. Gently flip the pancake and allow the other side to cook until perfectly browned, usually another 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, creating a stack of delicious pancakes ready to be enjoyed.
