Description

These gluten-free pumpkin pancakes are super easy and delicious and great for fall. They have the perfect pancake texture, but they're paleo and made from completely wholesome ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup almond flour

1 cup tapioca flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon salt

4 eggs

1/2 cup canned pure pumpkin puree

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup water

butter, for cooking and topping

maple syrup, for topping


Instructions

  1. Combine almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Then add the eggs, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and water. Mix until smooth.
  2. Melt butter in a large pan or on a griddle over medium heat. Then add the pancake batter to the pan, creating your desired size of pancakes (I use about a quarter cup of batter per pancake). 
  3. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the bottom sides of the pancakes are golden-brown. Then flip each pancake and cook until the other sides are golden-brown and the pancakes are cooked through, about a minute or two. 
  4. Repeat for the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan or griddle as needed. Serve immediately with butter and maple syrup or let cool and store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.  

Notes

Nutritional information is only an estimate, and does not include butter or maple syrup for topping. 

We use canned 100% pumpkin puree in this recipe, not pumpkin pie filling. Pumpkin should be the only ingredient.
