We made these this weekend and they were so yummy! I could not find the jar of applesauce that I swore we had so I mashed up some canned pears instead and it worked great. You can also switch out the applesauce for one large mashed banana. The original recipe calls for only 2 cups milk and I added more because it made really thick pancakes. You can obviously make them as thick or thin as you want to though.
Harvest Pancakes
1 cup uncooked rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons flax seed
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 sugar (optional)
2 tablespoons dry milk powder (optional)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 egg
2 1/3 cups milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup applesauce
Stir together dry ingredients and set aside. In seperate bowl, wisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil and vanilla. Stir in the applesauce. Pour into dry mixture until just moistened. Let the batter sit for 5 minutes. Heat a lightly oiled griddle to medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry. Flip and cook until light brown on other side.

Yum!!! These were a big hit w/ my kids. I told them the flax seeds were sprinkles, otherwise they wouldn't have touched them. ;)
