Fat Free Preparation of the Pancakes

(Do not use for waffles since they need the oil and eggs to make an acceptable product)

1% buttermilk is low fat
Eggs- use eggbeaters instead of eggs
Oil- use applesauce instead of the oil

The pancakes will not rise as much or be as fluffy but there is nothing lost in the taste. They will be extremely moist.
