While boxes of pancake mix are convenient, it really doesn't take much time to make your own pancake batter. For a little extra fiber, try these yummy applesauce oatmeal pancakes. Resist the temptation to top them with butter. A little maple syrup is perfect, or try some warmed applesauce and a sprinkling of cinnamon.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup flour (all-purpose, or substitute whole wheat flour for half the amount)
  • 1/2 cup oats (quick-cooking or old-fashioned)
  • 1/2 cup milk (fat-free)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil

Steps to Make It

  1. Gather the ingredients.

  2. Place ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until well blended.

  3. Heat a griddle to 375 F (medium). When griddle is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles appear and edges are puffed. Flip the pancakes and cook until golden.

  4. Serve and enjoy!
