Easy Oven Baked Whole Wheat Pancakes with Warm Apple Sauce, Vanilla Yogurt, and Crunchy Granola

Out of syrup? Don't let that stop you from making a delicious pancake breakfast! Easy Oven Baked Whole Wheat Pancakes with Warm Apple Sauce, Vanilla Yogurt, and Crunchy Granola to the rescue!

Pancakes are so widely loved there is even a national Pancake Day!

Pancakes are one breakfast item with endless variations! Most folks think of delicious additions to put in their pancakes, but I also like to think about what to put on them...which is how I came to enjoy this plate of Easy Oven Baked Whole Wheat Pancakes with Warm Apple Sauce, Vanilla Yogurt, and Crunchy Granola. I know that is a long name for such an easy to make dish, but this one is worth all those letters!

This is my healthy take on the "one cup pancakes" recipe.

This recipe is based upon the original "one cup pancakes" from Jamie Oliver. We have been eating our whole wheat version for years and years. But it wasn't until we hit the road in our little RV that I came upon the idea of baking them! One morning I was running late, and I did not have time to cook the pancakes one by one! I threw them in the oven, got ready for my volunteer shift. Now I never make them any other way.

We love just about everything on our pancakes.

Without a doubt, pancakes with maple syrup are a delicious breakfast any time you serve them. Often we will have pancakes for dinner, along with an egg or two. And for some families to stray from the pancake tradition enjoyed by so many for so long is unthinkable...but why not try something just a little bit different? Starting with a pancake breakfast that is a little bit easier? And this easy trio of flavors will do just that!

Plus with oven baked pancakes, everyone eats at the same time.

Once you stir up the pancakes and put them in the oven, the apple sauce pretty much cooks itself. Once out of the oven, grab a carton of vanilla yogurt and your favorite granola and let the morning begin. Just the smell of Easy Oven Baked Whole Wheat Pancakes with Warm Applesauce, Vanilla Yogurt and Crunchy Granola will spark your appetite and start your day off on a bright note. If you have a mind to, add a fried egg or two to the side of your plate.
