These apple pancakes are fluffy, soft and full of apple flavor. They are just 3 ingredients and don’t require any milk, added sugar, butter or oil. They are an easy breakfast or brunch.
These apple pancakes have been on repeat in my house. I don’t make pancakes as often as I would like to because of all the ingredients normally needed for pancakes. But these pancakes are just 3 ingredients and so easy. They are so light, fluffy and naturally sweetened with apples. They also don’t require milk which I think is an added bonus because I am always low on milk and often don’t have enough milk in the house when I do want to make pancakes.
Ingredients
- Applesauce
- Self-Rising Flour
- Eggs
Applesauce: You can make this with either sweetened or unsweetened applesauce. I used unsweetened applesauce but if you prefer sweeter pancakes, you can use sweetened. Applesauce replaces the milk and oil/butter that is usually used to make pancakes.
Self-Rising Flour: If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can just mix together all purpose flour, baking powder and a little salt.
Eggs: Eggs are used to provide structure for these pancakes.
How to Make Apple Pancakes
You add all the ingredients into a bowl and whisk. The batter is then ready to be cooked. I recommend cooking in a nonstick skillet with no oil to get perfectly golden brown tops on your pancakes.
Tips
- If you like cinnamon, you can add cinnamon to the batter or use cinnamon applesauce.
- You can add other favorite pancake toppings like fresh berries or chocolate chips.

3 Ingredient Apple Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 cup (125 g) self-rising flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (256 g) unsweetened applesauce can also use sweetened
Instructions
- Add all ingredients into a large mixing bowl and whisk until evenly combined and no egg streaks remain.
- Heat a nonstick skillet to medium heat. Once pan is hot, add 3 tbsp (44ml) of batter for each pancake, spacing pancakes about an inch apart. Depending on the size of your skillet, you may need to cook the pancakes in several batches. Cook each pancake until bubbles appear on the surface and begin to pop. Carefully flip the pancake over and cook a few more minutes until it is cooked on both sides. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve pancakes while warm with your favorite toppings or syrups.
Notes
- Homemade self-rising flour: Whisk together 1 cup all purpose flour + 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder + 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- I recommend cooking the pancakes in a nonstick skillet. I did not add any oil to mine. I found that this helps to create an even medium golden brown on the pancakes. You can cook the pancakes with butter or oil but the surface of the pancakes won't be an even golden brown.
- For flipping the pancakes, I recommend a cooking spatula with a very thin edge (like a cookie spatula but a bigger version). This helps slip under the pancake easier without damaging them.
