Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups Erin's Grain-Free Blend 280 grams
  • 1/4 cup ground golden flaxseed
  • 2 tablespoons cane sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 4 tablespoons butter melted and cooled (or dairy-free butter)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • butter or dairy-free butter for cooking

Instructions

  • Whisk together the dry ingredients until incorporated. In a separate bowl mix together the wet ingredients, breaking up the egg to totally combine. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir with a rubber spatula or spoon to totally combine.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add a 1-2 tablespoons of butter and swirl until it sizzles. Scoop out 1/4 cup batter into the hot pan and smooth to flatten slightly with an offset spatula or butter knife. Cook on one side until golden, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
  • These are best right out of the skillet. Serve with butter and warm maple syrup. Enjoy!
