How to make Vegan Pumpkin Pancakes
Prepare
Add all the dry ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside. Preheat your griddle.
Mix
In a medium bowl, add the water, oil and baking powder and whisk vigorously, until the mixture is frothy. Add in the pumpkin, milk and vanilla and mix until just combined. Now, it’s time to add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until it is JUST combined and the batter is slightly lumpy.
Cook
Drop using a small cup measure onto a greased griddle. Flip once, when the bottom side is golden brown. Repeat with all the batter.
Serve
Douse with syrup, serve and DEVOUR!
Recipe Variations
As usual, I totally encourage you to tweak this recipe to suit your needs! If you need vegan gluten free pumpkin pancakes, simply swap out regular flour for your favorite 1:1 gluten free blend. You could also toss in some chopped nuts, dairy free chocolate chips or chunks of apple to the batter if you want!
Top Tips for making Vegan Pumpkin Pancakes
- Don’t Overmix: Once you have incorporated the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a wire whisk, stop mixing! Overmixing will cause your pancakes to be more dense and less light and fluffy.
- Keep them small: Don’t try and make a massive, colossal pancake! Keep the pancakes small so that they cook evenly and are easy to flip!
Vegan Pancakes FAQ
Absolutely! Just use your favorite gluten free 1:1 flour blend and they will turn out great.
I recommend freezing your pancakes in a stack with parchment paper in between each pancake so that they do not stick together. To thaw, pop them on a plate and into the microwave for about 30 seconds or until they are warm.
You most certainly can! Just pour the batter into a greased waffle maker and cook until golden brown and crispy.
Pumpkin is great for you! They are high in Vitamin A, full of antioxidants and are great for helping with digestive problems.
