Applesauce Oatmeal Pancakes
Start your morning off just right with these light and fluffy pancakes. Try topping with unsweetened applesauce instead of syrup. These will definitely be a hit with the entire family. Enjoy!

Ingredients
  • 1 cup old fashion cooking oats (can use quick oats, but the texture will not be as rich or crunchy)
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp. baking powder
  • 1 cup fat-free milk
  • 2 tbsp. unsweetened applesauce
  • 4 egg whites

    Directions
    1. Combine oats, flours, and baking powder in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine milk, applesauce, and egg whites, add to dry ingredients and mix until well blended.

    2. Use nonstick cooking spray to grease a griddle. Pour batter in 1/4 cup increments onto heated griddle. Cook until bubbles appear on top; turn and cook until lightly browned.
