Apple Flax Pancakes

Our kids love pancakes, but I don't like the simple-carb aspect of regular pancakes. So I beef them up with flax, bran and double the eggs. These will last you until lunch!

Dry ingredients:
2 cups white flour
1 Tbsp milled flax seeds
1 Tbsp wheat bran
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt

Wet ingredients:
4 Tbsp butter, melted
1½ cup milk
½ cup applesauce
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla

Whisk together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients without over-mixing; a few lumps are okay. Cook pancakes on a non-stick skillet or griddle, being sure not to over-brown, or they will be tougher and less fluffy.
