Pancakes- the best recipe I've tried

For years I've tried pancake recipes but haven't found one I like. This one is awesome. Great every time. I usually double it or even triple it if I want some leftover.  From Everyday Food

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 apple, peeled and diced small (1 cup) or berries or nothin'

Directions

  1. Step 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk, applesauce, egg, and butter. Add applesauce mixture to flour mixture and whisk until just moistened (batter should have some lumps; do not overmix).
  2. Step 2

    Lightly coat a large nonstick skillet or griddle with cooking spray and heat over medium-high. In batches, drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls into skillet. Sprinkle each pancake with diced apple. Cook until bubbles appear on top and a few have burst, 2 to 5 minutes. Flip pancakes and cook until golden brown on underside, 2 to 5 minutes. Repeat with more cooking spray and remaining batter, wiping skillet clean between batches.
