Healthy Pumpkin Pancakes
This is the pumpkin pancake recipe I make every weekend of fall! They’re soft and fluffy with a perfect subtle pumpkin flavor. Made in just one bowl and naturally gluten free, they're a must bake during the chilly weather months!

Ingredients
- ⅔ cup greek yogurt - plain and unsweetened
- ⅓ cup pumpkin puree
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup oat milk - substitute any milk
- 2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice - or apple cider vinegar
- 2 cup oat flour - store bought or homemade

- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
- In a bowl, stir together the greek yogurt, pumpkin puree, eggs, oat milk, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until well blended.⅔ cup greek yogurt - plain and unsweetened, ⅓ cup pumpkin puree, 2 eggs, 1 cup oat milk - substitute any milk, 2 teaspoon vanilla, 1 teaspoon lemon juice - or apple cider vinegar
- Add the oat flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and sea salt to the bowl and gently fold until no flour clumps remain. If adding mix-ins, fold them in now. Set the bowl aside so the batter can thicken up while the skillet heats up.2 cup oat flour - store bought or homemade, 3 tablespoon coconut sugar - or brown sugar, 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice, ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of oil or butter to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. Once the pan is hot, use a ¼ measuring cup or a large cookie scoop to scoop the batter onto the pan. Depending on the size of your pan, I don’t recommend cooking any more than 3 pancakes at a time.Oil or butter - for cooking
- Allow the pancakes to cook on the skillet until the edges puff up and little bubbles begin to appear inside the pancake (this will take 1 ½ - 3 minutes). Carefully flip each pancake over and allow them to cook on the other side for another minute. Remove from the skillet and transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve with butter, maple syrup, and optional toppings and enjoy!
Notes
Variations - add some chocolate chips, chopped pecans, extra pumpkin spice, chopped apples, blueberries, etc. to the batter for different flavors.
