Low Calorie Apple Pancake Recipe
Mix together the following ingredients to form the pancake batter:
1/2 cup all-purpose Flour
2 Teaspoons of Baking Powder
1 Large Egg, Beaten
1 Cup of Reduced Fat Milk
1/4 cup of Vegetable Oil
1/8 Teaspoon of Salt
1/2 cup of shredded apples, flesh only
1 Teaspoon of Ground Cinnamon
Cooking Spray
1 Tablespoon of Splenda (cooking variety) OR you can use real sugar OR brown sugar if you wish.
How to Prepare This Recipe
Mix all of the above into a smooth batter - omitting the apples. Stir the shredded apple into the batter. Cook in a non-stick pan, griddle or skillet until golden brown on one side; flip and cook the opposite side. If the cooking spray needs a little help, you add a touch of oil to the pan.
Top the pancakes with the following rather than syrup if you wish:
Peel and core two apples and chop into cubes. Add 1/2 inch of water to a microwave safe dish and also add the chopped apple. Cook in microwave until apples are tender; remove and add a teaspoon of ground cinnamon and a bit of Splenda to the apples. Stir.
Or, you can opt for light apple pie filling which contains 50 calories per serving. The pancake recipe makes 8 generous pancakes for about 120 calories each.
