‘Tis the season! Pumpkin Pancakes–great for cozy mornings…or comforting dinners! Perfectly spiced, naturally sweet to celebrate everyday or holidays. (All gluten free, refined sugar free, and dairy free too!)
1 cup rolled oats
2 Tbsp flax seed
4 Tbsp gluten free flour
1⅛ cup unsweetened almond milk
½ cup pumpkin puree
1½ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Pinch cloves
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1 egg
¼ cup coconut sugar
¼ tsp sea salt
Stevia, if desired
Toppings: Chopped pecans and Maple syrup
- Process oats, flax seed and flour in food processor or blender to a fine powder.
- Add remaining ingredients to blender and process until well mixed. Sprinkle and mix in additional stevia for sweeter pancakes. Batter will be thick.
- Preheat a nonstick pan over low/medium heat. Once hot, add small amount of coconut oil and spread around hot pan.
- Make pancakes, scooping about ¼ cup batter on the pan for each one, flattening and spreading out batter as needed. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until nicely browned. Flip. Cook for another 2-3 minutes on the second side and until pancakes are not doughy.
- Top with chopped pecans and maple syrup (or try Maple Syrup made from xylitol if you’re carefully watching blood sugars).
Makes 10-12.
Freeze pancakes and reheat in the toaster for a quick, easy breakfast.
