Best Healthy Pumpkin Spice Pancakes Recipes

PUMPKIN SPICE PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk brown sugar, pumpkin, milk, egg, vanilla, and coconut/vegetable oil until smooth.
• Stir flour mixture into pumpkin mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as a few flour streaks are OK!
• In a large skillet or griddle, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Pour batter by ¼ cupful onto skillet and cook until edges are set, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned, about 1-2 minute. Repeat process with rest of butter and pancakes.
• Serve immediately with butter and maple syrup, if desired.

HEALTHY PUMPKIN SPICE PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice. Add the pumpkin pureée and plant-based milk, and stir to combine.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. For each pancake, pour ¼ cup of the batter into the skillet. You should be able to fit 2-3 pancakes in a large skillet at a time.
• Cook each pancake until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges become slightly matte. Flip and cook for an additional 30 seconds or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
• If freezing, let the pancakes cool for 5 minutes. Space them evenly on a large baking sheet and flash freeze them for 10 minutes. Then, wrap them tightly in foil or a sealed plastic bag.
• Freeze for up to one month. Reheat in an oven at 350 degrees F for 10-15 minutes or in a toaster.
• Top with sliced banana, chopped pecans, and maple syrup.

HEALTHY PUMPKIN SPICE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Beat eggs well until somewhat frothy.
• Add other ingredients except pumpkin and mix.
• Add pumpkin and mix again.
• Fry batter in scant 1/4 cupfuls on a nonstick griddle or pan.
• Try not to stack pancakes if possible; this helps retain the fluffiness :). I often store them on a cookie sheet in a 250°F oven until time to serve, which helps keep them warm.

HEALTHY PUMPKIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and milk. Set aside and let rest for 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl or saucepan, melt the butter. Set aside to cool.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the white whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg until evenly combined.
• To the bowl with the rested milk and yogurt, add the pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla. Whisk until well blended. Whisk in the melted, cooled butter.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Carefully pour in the wet ingredients. With a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir very gently, just until the flour disappears. The mixture will look lumpy. Let rest while the skillet preheats.
• To cook: If you'd like to keep the pancakes warm between batches, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat an electric griddle to 350 degrees F, or heat a large, nonstick skillet or cast iron skillet over medium low. Wait several minutes to allow the skillet fully preheat.
• Melt a little butter on the skillet, or coat with nonstick spray (some nonstick surfaces may not need any butter/spray at all). Scoop the batter by scant 1/4 cupfuls, leaving room for the pancakes to spread. Let cook on the first side until bubbles form on top and the edges of the pancakes look dry, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side, until the pancakes are golden and cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Adjust the heat as you go if the outsides begin to darken too quickly, before the insides are cooked through.
• Repeat with remaining pancakes, adding more butter or nonstick spray to the skillet as needed and keeping the pancakes warm in the oven between batches as desired. Serve hot, with desired toppings.

PUMPKIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the milk, pumpkin, egg, oil and vinegar. Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, ginger and salt in a separate bowl. Stir into the pumpkin mixture just enough to combine.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.
