Ingredient Notes
Pumpkin Puree: Be sure to use pumpkin purée, not pumpkin pie filling! They are usually stocked on the same shelf in the grocery store, so make sure you check.
Non-Dairy Milk: I used oat milk for my Vegan Pumpkin Pancakes, but soy milk, or almond milk will also work.
Pumpkin Pie Spice: Lately, I've been using store-bought pumpkin pie spice but you can also make your own homemade pumpkin spice blend with this recipe!
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1. In a large bowl, combine non-dairy milk, pumpkin purée, maple syrup, canola oil, vinegar and vanilla. Whisk well to combine.
Step 2. To the liquid ingredients, add flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk just until the batter forms.
Step 3. Heat a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Grease the skillet with vegan butter or coconut oil.
Use a ⅓ cup measuring cup to pour Vegan Pumpkin Pancake batter onto the pan, then use the back of the measuring cup to swirl the batter into a circle with an approximately 5-inch diameter.
Step 4. Cook the pancakes for about 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
Then, repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve with vegan butter and maple syrup!
Recipe FAQs
To store, allow the pancakes to cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container with a piece of parchment or waxed paper between layers and freeze for up to a month.
I love to cook my pancakes on a well-seasoned cast iron pan. I've never had any problems with sticking.
If you don't cook with cast iron, I recommend a non-stick skillet.
You can use applesauce, mashed banana, a flax egg, or, in this case, pumpkin purée!
Expert Recipe Tips
Don't over-mix the pancake batter! It's okay if there are lumps. They will cook out.
If you whisk until the batter is completely smooth, you will be left with gummy pancakes.
