Instructions

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat; let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, mix eggs, applesauce, milk, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla until smooth; stir in melted butter.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and whisk gently until just combined; some lumps are okay.
Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray. Scoop scant ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle.
Cook until bubbles form on top and the underside is lightly browned (about 2-3 minutes). Flip carefully and cook until browned on the other side (about 2 minutes more).
Serve immediately or keep warm in an oven set at 200°F while finishing cooking.
