Author: Ella Smith
Recipe type: Breakfast
Serves: 7 medium pancakes
Ingredients
1¼ cup whole wheat pastry flour
2 Tablespoons coconut sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup milk of choice (I used unsweetened almond milk)
½ cup canned pumpkin puree
1 large egg
2 Tablespoons coconut oil, melted
¼-1/3 cup chocolate chips
¼-1/3 cup pecans, chopped
olive oil for cooking
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients.
In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, pumpkin puree and egg.
Melt coconut oil in the microwave. Pour into wet ingredients.
Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Stir until completely combined.
Add chocolate chips and chopped pecans and stir.
In a medium or large skillet or griddle, heat oil over medium heat.
Once oil is hot, scoop ⅓ cup batter into skillet.
Cook until bubbles form in center, then flip with spatula.
Cook other side until firm. (should take less time than the first side)
Lower heat to medium-low.
If needed, re-oil skillet. Repeat with remaining batter.
Serve warm with pure maple syrup, additional chocolate chips or even banana slices.
Notes
* To serve all pancakes at the same time, preheat oven to 200 degrees F. before preparing batter. Then, place pancakes on a parchment-lined baking sheet after each one is done.
