pumpkin pancakes

Fluffy and moist, with a subtle pumpkin-cinnamon flavor, these pumpkin pancakes are also very filling and satisfying. A lovely autumn weekend breakfast.

Makes 20 pancakes
New quantity:

Total time: 30 minutes
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes

Ingredients
2 cups white whole-wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups reduced-fat milk
1 tablespoon olive oil (not extra virgin)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup canned pure pumpkin puree
Nonstick cooking spray

Directions
1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.

2. In a medium bowl, beat eggs. Add milk, oil, maple syrup and pumpkin puree, whisking after each addition.

3. Pour liquid mixture over dry mixture and mix with a spatula. Don’t over mix – a lumpy batter is fine.

4. Heat two 12-inch skillets, or a two-burner griddle, over medium heat, about 3 minutes. Spray with nonstick spray. Pour a scant 1/4-cup batter per pancake onto griddle, spacing them 2 inches apart. Cook pancakes about 2 minutes on each side, until golden and cooked through.
