Vegan Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe

Vegan Pumpkin Pancakes recipe
The Roasted Root

Vegan pumpkin waffles are an incredible celebration of fall for breakfast!

Ingredients

1/3 cup pumpkin puree (I used canned)
2/3 cup full-fat canned coconut milk
3 tablespoons grapeseed oil (or coconut oil)
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)
2 teaspoons grapeseed oil (or oil of choice)
1/3 cup raw walnuts (chopped)
2 tablespoons raw pumpkin seeds
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch sea salt

Method

1
Add all ingredients for the pancakes to a blender and blend until combined (note: if you don't have a blender, you can also use a hand mixer, or whisk by hand). The batter will be thick - this is normal!
2
Heat 1 to 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Measure a scant 1/4 cup of batter and pour onto the hot skillet. Note that the pancake batter won't spread the way regular pancake batter does, so you can use your finger or a spoon to shape it into a disc. Cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden-brown and cooked through in the center. Repeat for remaining batter.
3
Top pancakes with maple-toasted walnuts and pumpkin seeds, and a drizzle of Chai-Spiced Paleo Salted Caramel (or pure maple syrup).
4
Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a small skillet. Add the remaining ingredients and cook, stirring frequently, until nuts and seeds have absorbed much of the liquid and appear sticky, about 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside until ready to use.
