Cooking Instructions
- Melt the butter and set it aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, applesauce, milk, honey, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth. Whisk in the melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk until just incorporated. It's ok if a few lumps remain; try not to over-mix.
- Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Spray lightly with cooking spray. Scoop batter by scant ¼ cup onto the heated griddle.
- Cook until bubbles begin to form and the bottom side is lightly brown, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the second side, about 2 minutes more.
- Serve immediately or keep warm in a 200 degree oven while cooking the rest.
Notes
Pancakes can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. Let cool completely before freezing in a zip-top plastic bag or airtight container.
