I made them this morning and both my 2 yr old and 7 yr old loved them - the whole batch is gone between the three of us!! I had only 2 whole eggs in the fridge and a package of liquid egg whites to account for the rest, but even with an egg yolk missing they turned out well. I also substituted cow milk with Almond Milk (unsweetened) and had to add a bit extra. Next time, I'll add a pinch of salt - these would be great with shredded apples and cinnamon, or bananas as well!. Thanks for a great breakfast! :)

These pancakes were indeed fluffy and delicious, but I was disappointed we couldn't taste the applesauce. Maybe I'll try chunks of apples in them as another person suggested, or more applesauce as a topping. I used all whole wheat flour and they were still light and fluffy. Thanks!

GREAT PANCAKES! I made the recipe as listed, just with a little salt added, and an extra 1/2 tsp baking powder (I like my pancakes REALLY fluffy!). They were delicious, and very light and fluffy! As a note, we had ours with fresh strawberries and powdered sugar on top and they were fantastic.

I loved the texture of these pancakes, but they cried out for a little salt! After tasting one, I added salt to the rest of the batter and they tasted MUCH better. I had to add extra milk and applesauce, and I still couldn't taste any apple flavor; I guess I'm not really sure if I was supposed to, but I was a little disappointed that I couldn't. These were good pancakes, but not the best. Thanks for the recipe!

I liked these. I agree with another reviewer, these are more thick than fluffy. I like thick pancakes, but I'm not sure it's worth it for me to get out the mixer. I would make them again, but w/o beating the egg whites (I wonder how I should change the recipe/ratios?). They are a little bland, but with syrup it hardly matters. My 16-mo-old doesn't seem to care. I did add some cinnamon, I think it was a good touch. And in answer to somebody's question, I think the oil in the recipe is just for frying.

Wow - these were great! We had made applesauce from our slightly withered autumn apples a couple of days ago but didn't eat very much. Dad found this recipe this morning and served them to us. Definitely something to wake up to! The opportunity to add wheat germ and use up applesauce was great. The only thing to change... Mom wanted these thinner - they're probably 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, so Dad added some more milk. Beautiful and tasty nonetheless. Thanks so much!

Nice pancakes. I halved the recipe, then got a bit stuck on the egg measurements (halving results in 1 1/2 egg yolks, 1 1/2 egg whites). However, I perservered anyway and ended up with (I think!) the correct ratio of eggs. These are heartier pancakes, and I love that I can use my jar of applesauce in something else. Bf liked them as well. Thanks for the recipe!

Quite tasty but I added a teaspoon of cinnamon and a chopped peeled apple for some extra chunks. Yum! After making it, we all wished we'd added a touch of salt to wake up the flavors, but we'll we making this on Saturday mornings for sure!

okay for homemade pancakes. Not as fluffy as i wold have liked it to be though. Maybe it was my fault, but the store mixes have 10x more bubbles than what these made. good flavor and texture though.

I may have goofed the recipe, but I did not care for these pancakes. They were more doughy than fluffy and were not very flavorful.

Absolutely heavenly! I veganized the recipe by using EnerG egg substitute (beaten stiff w/ mixer) and almond & rice milk. I also added a banana. They were extremely moist and the fluffiest vegan pancakes ever! Thank you! This will now be my "go-to recipe!"

Super yummy! My kids and husband liked them. I substituted 1/4 cup oat bran for some of the white flour, used egg whites only, no yolks, and thinned with water no milk, and no oil-just applesauce. Tasted great, very filling. Will make again for sure. I have mixed up the dry ingredients into plastic bags so I only need to add wet stuff to make, much faster that way on the weekend for a quick breakfast.

I just love this recipe. Why should I add sugar when most likely I'll be topping them with syrup or something else that is sweet? My kids love them and I know they are getting something that is a healthier alternative to your basic pancake mix. Oh yeah, I also added ground flaxseed meal. Enjoy!

This is a great and healthy alternative to regular pancakes. My two little ones, (29 months and 13 months old), gobbled these up!! Yes, I agree that they are tasteless BUT that is the fun part about these pancakes. My 29 month old liked them with blueberry fruit spread, my 13 month old liked them plain and my husband and I liked them with honey....everyone wins! To thin them out more I just used more milk and the batter was fine. I plan on making these pancakes agin and freezing them for a really quick, delicious and nutrious breakfast!

These turned out fluffy and very tasty. The kids (4 & 6) thought they were great too! I did add a tsp of vanilla and made sure the egg whites were well whipped. I loved a healthier alternative!
