Recipe Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Coat a large nonstick jelly-roll pan or cookie sheet with cooking spray. Measure out pancake mixture by rounded 1/3 cups and arrange on prepared pan, allowing 2 inches between pancakes. There should be 12 pancakes total. Flatten pancakes to 1/2-inch thickness. Bake until pancakes are firm and golden brown around edges, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare sour cream topping. Stir together sour cream, remaining 1/2 cup of applesauce, ginger and cumin in a medium bowl.

Remove pancakes from oven. Let set 5 minutes. Gently remove pancakes with spatula. Serve with sour cream topping.

This recipe yields 4 servings; 3 pancakes and about 1/4 cup of topping per serving.
