- 50 g pumpkin puree
- 50 g oat flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin spice
- 100 ml plant-based milk
- 1 tbsp plant-based yogurt
- a bit of vanilla paste
- a pinch of salt
- dark chocolate chips (optional)
- Combine all ingredients (except chocolate chips) in a large bowl. Whisk well until a smooth batter forms, which takes about 2-3 minutes.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. This helps the ingredients combine and makes the pancakes fluffier.
- Meanwhile, heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. You know the pan is ready when a few drops of water dance on it.
- Melt a little oil or vegan butter in the pan to prevent sticking.
- Spoon or use an ice cream scoop to drop portions of batter into the pan. Smooth the top slightly with the spoon. If using chocolate chips, place them on top of the pancakes now.
- Wait until small bubbles form at the edges of the pancake and the batter sets on the surface, which takes about 3-4 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- Stack the finished pancakes on a plate and serve with toppings as desired. They taste best with a drizzle of maple syrup!
