Pancakes spell pure joy. These pumpkin pancakes are delicious with a flavour of fall. Kids just love them.

My younger son is really fond of them and asks me to make them regularly. These pumpkin pancakes are super easy to make as well and delicious too.

You use all the regular ingredients apart from pumpkin purée that I make from scratch at home.

Keep it in the fridge for the pumpkin recipes that I regularly make. If not you can use canned purée.

And yes, you must have pumpkin spice, again super easy to make at home but you can get store bought as well.

Here’s how to make these easy and healthy pumpkin spice pancakes:

Step-by-step Pictures

Mix together wholewheat flour, baking powder, pumpkin spice, salt and sugar.

Beat the egg lightly and add melted butter (or oil) along with milk and pumpkin purée. Mix them well.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and mix well till well combined.

Your pumpkin pancake mix is ready to cook.

Heat your skillet and add a little oil or butter. When it is sizzling hot, use a bowl or cup to spread ¼ cup batter on to the skillet.

I make 2-3 pancakes together.

Soon, you will see bubbles on top. Flip carefully and cook. It takes about 2 minutes each side.

Stack them and serve with honey or maple syrup.

These pancakes are so comforting and delicious. Everyone loves them.

I have shared substitutes to make vegan pumpkin pancakes in the recipe.

Another great breakfast idea are these gluten free scones. I love them with hot coffee or tea.

Notes

1. You can use a non-stick pan to make these pancakes. 2. In case you don’t have pumpkin spice you can substitute with 1 tsp. of cinnamon and ¼ tsp. nutmeg powder. 3. You can easily make this recipe vegan by using non-dairy milk and coconut oil in place of butter and omitting egg or using flax egg. 4. I like to have them right away but you can always re-heat and serve later. 5. You can also freeze the pancakes and then thaw and reheat. 6. You can use canned pumpkin purée in case you don’t have homemade at hand. 7. The batter stays good for 2 days in the fridge.
