Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (or coconut sugar)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup unsweetened plant-based milk (such as almond, soy, or oat)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree, plant-based milk, vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil), and vanilla extract. Mix well until everything is thoroughly combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps in the batter.
  • Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with oil or cooking spray.
  • Pour 1/4 cup portions of the pancake batter onto the hot skillet to form pancakes. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a circular shape if needed.
  • Cook the pancakes until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set, usually about 2-3 minutes.
  • Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
  • Serve the vegan pumpkin pancakes hot with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, vegan butter, chopped nuts, or fresh berries. Enjoy your delicious and fluffy vegan pumpkin pancakes!
