• 2 Eggs
• 1 Can of Coconut Milk
• 1 Can of Goat Milk
• 3 Tbsp Vegan Butter
• 1 Cup of Pumpkin Puree
• 1 Tbsp Vanilla or Maple Extract
• 3 Tbsp Maple Syrup
• 1 1/2 Cups of Buckwheat Flour or All-Purpose Gluten Free Flour
• 1 Tbsp Benefiber (optional)
• 2 tsp Baking Powder

Step By Step Directions for Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

Step 1:

Crack 2 eggs in a bowl and whisk vigorously or beat with a mixer until frothy.

Step 2:

Combine one can of coconut milk with one can of goat milk. Stir them together with a fork or use a blender. Measure out 1 cup of your creamy coconut/goat milk mixture.

Step 3:

Melt 3 Tbsp of vegan butter. I like to use the brand Smart Balance or Country Crock.

Step 4:

Combine eggs, milk mixture, and melted butter in a large bowl. Stir well.

Step 5:

Add 1 cup of pumpkin puree, 3 Tbsp of maple syrup, and 1 Tbsp of vanilla or maple extract. Beat until completely combined. This completes the wet ingredients for your pumpkin spice pancakes.

Step 6:

In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1 Tbsp of Benefiber, 2 tsp baking powder, a 1/2 tsp of baking soda, and a 1/2 tsp of salt. Stir well.

Step 7:

Next, add all of your spices to the flour mixture: 1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, a 1/4 tsp of ginger, a 1/4 tsp of nutmeg, and 1 tsp of allspice. Stir well so that the spices are evenly distributed in the flour to make your pumpkin spice pancakes delicious.

Step 8:

Gently combine your wet and dry ingredients using a fork. Stir until there are no clumps left in your pumpkin spice pancake batter.

Step 9:

Cook in a cast-iron skillet or nonstick skillet on the stovetop with a dollop of butter melted in the pan over medium-low heat. If you are using an electric skillet, preheat it to 350 degrees.

Step 10:

Enjoy your pumpkin spice pancakes with your favorite toppings!

Topping Ideas

These pumpkin spice pancakes are delicious topped with maple syrup. The taste is the definition of fall. If you love to dress up your pancakes for a big breakfast on the weekend, then try serving it with TruWhip Whipped Topping, apple butter, cooked cinnamon apples, or even a maple pecan topping.

Maple Pecan Topping

• 1/2 cup of maple syrup
• 1/2 cup of brown sugar
• 1/4 tsp of salt
• 1/2 cup of vegan butter
• 1/2 cup of chopped pecans

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the maple syrup, brown sugar, butter, and salt. Stir continuously as the brown sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Allow it to simmer for 3-5 minutes until the syrup is smooth. You want to make sure all sugar granules are dissolved. Remove the pan from the stovetop and stir in the pecans. Serve over your warm pumpkin spice pancakes. Read Original Post
