By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups water
• 1/2 cup applesauce
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons vegetable shortening

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add remaining ingredients except shortening; mix well.

In a griddle pan or large skillet over medium heat, heat shortening. Pour 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle and cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form, then turn pancakes over and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Continue in batches until all batter is used.

Enjoy these with maple syrup.
