Easy Fluffy Oatmeal Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe:
Servings: Makes between 6-8 small pancakes, Prep Time: 10 minutes, Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
1 c canned pumpkin puree
2 eggs
1 c rolled oats
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2/3 c milk (of choice)
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp maple syrup
2 tsp pumpkin spice
1/2 tsp dried ground ginger
1/2 tsp salt
Spray oil for cooking (I used olive oil)
Directions:
Combine all ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend for about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides with a spatula and blend for another 15-30 seconds until all ingredients are combined.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium heat. Spray the skillet with oil and ensure an even coating inside the pan. Next, pour the mixture into small-sized (3-4 inch diameter) pancakes (should fit 3-4 pancakes into the pan).
Allow the pancakes to cook on one side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. Flip the pancakes over and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Tip: reduce the heat to medium-low throughout the cooking process, as needed, to prevent burning.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and set aside. Repeat the above process with the remaining batter.
Serve pancakes with warm maple syrup, pecans, pumpkin seeds, and extra pumpkin spice.
Once cooled, pancakes can be stored in an air-tight container and in the freezer for later. Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven.
