Granola Almond Pancakes

This was a very good basic pancake recipe, but I wanted to add a little something to make them healthier and give them some substance. I also substituted the oil with applesauce! They came out great and all 3 of my kids loved them! The recipe made 20 pancakes; you can halve it if you do not need that many. I freeze the extras for another day!

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 teaspoons almond extract
• 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons white sugar, or to taste
• ½ cup sliced almonds, or to taste
• 2 cups almond milk (such as Silk®)
• 1 (4 ounce) container applesauce
• 1 cup granola (such as Back to Nature®), or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Whisk almond milk, applesauce, eggs, and almond extract together in a separate bowl. Add flour mixture to almond milk mixture and stir until batter is just moistened. Stir granola and almonds into batter.

Step 2

Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
