Starting with this recipe for pumpkin spice pancakes which are just perfect for the season! After you try these pancakes, you won’t want to eat regular pancakes again!
These pancakes are gluten-free and use almond flour and coconut flour instead of regular wheat flour. This also makes the pancakes lower carb, and able to be eaten on the paleo diet too.
Enjoy these pancakes with your choice of toppings and sides – bacon, ham, or sausage would be so good!
Ingredients & Equipment Used In This Recipe
You may have some of the ingredients for this recipe in your kitchen already – the full list with measurements is found in the recipe card.
For your convenience, any specialized ingredients and equipment needed for this recipe have been linked to Amazon below.
- Canned Pure Pumpkin – not pumpkin pie filling. If you can’t get canned pumpkin, you can steam some fresh pumpkin or butternut squash and blend it to a purée in a food processor.
- Honey – buy local honey if you can. Used instead of sugar in this recipe
- Almond Flour
- Coconut Flour
- Baking Powder
- Pumpkin Pie Spice – if you can’t source it you blend it yourself! See below.
- Coconut Oil
- Real Maple Syrup – a suggested topping. Use 100% pure syrup anything less will use other sweeteners such as corn syrup.
- Pecans – a suggested topping, but you could use walnuts or hazelnuts or any nut you like!
This recipe uses American cups. They’re a handy piece of kitchen equipment to have along with a kitchen food scale. Having both in your kitchen means you’ll be able to make all of the different recipes on my blog as I use both cups and weighted measures.
How Do I Make Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice
If you can’t find pumpkin pie spice, it is really easy to make yourself with individual spices that all supermarkets should sell.
To make 1 Tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice, stir the following spices together in a small bowl.
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp ginger
- ½ tsp allspice or cloves
- ½ tsp nutmeg
Transfer to an airtight jar and store in a cool, dry place. Use in recipes that call for pumpkin pie spice as required.
