• 2 tablespoons applesauce
• 1 apple, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh blueberries

• 1 tablespoon granular sucralose sweetener (such as Splenda®)
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 cup granola
• 0.25 cup whole wheat flour
• 0.25 cup orange juice, or as needed
• 0.25 cup soy milk
• 0.25 cup egg substitute
• 3 pieces candied ginger, minced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine apple, orange juice to cover, butter, sucralose, allspice, and candied ginger in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and let the syrup cook until pancakes are ready to serve.

Step 2

Mix granola, soy milk, egg substitute, flour, applesauce, almonds, blueberries, wheat germ, vanilla extract, sucralose, cinnamon, baking soda, and baking powder together in a bowl to make the batter.

Step 3

Heat a nonstick griddle over medium-low heat. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the griddle and cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 1 minute more. Transfer pancake to a plate and cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with apple syrup.
