Pumpkin Pancakes recipe - yum
« on: March 04, 2008, 05:40:25 am »
I was emailing Aleesa (aly mac) this recipe so thought i would share with everyone while i was at it typing away  ;D. this is a recipe for very healthy pumpkin pancakes using pumpkin puree (not pumpkin PIE canned stuff you can get in america - either friesh pumpkin that is cooked or tinned pumpkin puree). i am still trying different recipes that have added fruit or veg and this one went down a treat - alex who eats ZERO veg and about 1 fruit serve per month  :'( ate 6 of these for dinner one night! they are not very sweet and i just called them Orange pancakes since the pink pancakes from deceptively delicious were such a success


From Allrecipes.com
2 cups all purpose flour

3 TBS brown sugar

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp allspice

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp  ground ginger

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/2 c milk

1c pumpkin puree

1 egg

2 TBS veg oil

2 TBS vinegar



In a separate bowl mix together the milk, pumpkin, egg, oil and vinegar

Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and soda, spices and salt and stir into the pumpkin mixture just enough to combine

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over med high heat

Pour or scoop batter onto the pan using approx 1/4 c for each pancake. brown on both sides.



I used just under 1/4 c per pancake and got 22 good sized fluffy pancakes (they pop right up and even the very 1st pancake came out perfect - very easy recipe and the girls have had them warm and cold from the fridge and love them.  ENJOY!

Thanks Deb, I am hoping to have a glut of pumpkins soon from the vege patch, so this will be a great variation to pumpkin soup.   :)

Bren is our resident pancake maker, he'll like this variation.

The orange pancakes reminds me of my 'pink mashed potato' - potato and fresh beetroot.  It makes a great vibrant pink.
