Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, oil, applesauce, and vanilla.
Beat in the flours, flax seed, wheat germ, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix just until the batter is smooth. Do not overmix.
Preheat a waffle iron and spray it with cooking spray.
Pour the appropriate amount of batter into waffle iron and cook until crisp and golden brown, according to waffle iron directions.
Serve with fresh fruit, or your favorite maple syrup.
These pancakes freeze well in an airtight container for up to 6 weeks. Reheat them in the toaster or air fryer to make them a little crispy.
