This pumpkin pancake recipe makes thick and fluffy pancakes that go great served with a little whipped cream and lots of fruit.
I love cooking with pumpkin in the fall. I get excited for pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin pie Blizzards. This time of year, pumpkin makes its appearance in a lot of recipes I cook.
My family especially loves when I make pumpkin pancakes (or any kind of pancakes for that matter).
Pancake starters
I like to save time in the mornings by having pre-mixed and measured pancake starters on hand. I mix 2 cups whole wheat flour, 1 tsp baking powder, and 1 tsp baking soda and store in containers, since that is how I start all of my pancake recipes. It saves a lot of mess and time to not have to measure flour when I want to make pancakes.
Note on coconut oil: I use organic coconut oil, which still has the coconut flavor, when I cook pancakes. I don’t use it in everything because of the strong flavor, but I like it in pancakes.
