Applesauce Oat Cakes

These make a big batch and freeze well! Just pop them in the toaster for a quick, healthy breakfast or snack! Awesome smeared with peanut butter & drizzled with a little honey.

2 c. old fashioned rolled oats
1 c. whole wheat flour
1/8 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 T. baking powder
2 T. honey
4 eggs
1 1/2 c. milk
6 T. natural applesauce
Butter for the pan

Whisk together all the ingredients and let stand 5 minutes. Brush a non-stick pan or griddle with butter and dollop 1/4 c. circles of batter onto the surface. Cook until you see lots of little popped bubbles on the surface.

 Flip and cook for about 1 minute more until cooked through. Remove from pan and place
on a baking sheet.

If you are eating them soon, put in a warm oven while  you continue to make more cakes. If freezing, let cool completely on the baking sheet. Then stack in a large freezer bag with wax paper or parchment between the layers. Recipe will make about 32 small pancakes.
