Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe

These pumpkin pancakes are easy and super fluffy. They taste like pumpkin pie in pancake form.
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 15 oz pumpkin puree, (I used Libby's 100% Pure Pumpkin)
- 3/4 cup low-fat buttermilk, or kefir*
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- Extra light olive oil , to sautee (or coconut oil or butter)
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar until well blended.
-
Whisk in pumpkin puree, buttermilk, and salt.
-
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and cinnamon then whisk your flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture.
-
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add just enough oil to lightly coat the surface. Spoon batter into the pan (about 2 Tbsp per pancake) and sautee 2-3 min per side. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more oil as needed. Serve warm with maple syrup.
Recipe Notes
*Some pumpkin purees are thicker than others. If pancake batter appears too thick, you can add 2-4 Tbsp extra buttermilk.
