PUMPKIN PANCAKES
Who loves Pancakes? Me! Me! If you have been following me for a while you know I like to experiment with different pancake recipes and fun pancake shapes. I especially like it because my family loves to have breakfast for dinner sometimes. So recently with the onset of some Fall like weather, we whipped up these Pumpkin Pancakes. We even made them with pumpkin to make them more authentic and fun.
PUMPKIN PANCAKE RECIPE
We used a recipe from Allrecipes and it was really good! Or you can just whip up some good old Pancake mix and make them pumpkin shaped rather than pumpkin flavored!

PUMPKIN PANCAKES
Make these fun pumpkin pancakes for your Halloween party. Yummy pumpkin pancakes shaped like a pumpkin, yes please!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg
- 2 Tbs vegetable oil
- 2 Tbs vinegar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 Tbs brown sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground allspice
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
-
In a bowl, mix together the milk, pumpkin, egg, oil and vinegar. Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, ginger and salt in a separate bowl. Stir into the pumpkin mixture just enough to combine.
-
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Separate batter into two bowls. Add 3/4 of the batter to one and 1/4 to the other. Color the larger bowl orange and the smaller bowl green.
-
Pour or scoop the orange batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Pour into a pumpkin shape. Then add a small bit of green batter to the top to make the stem. Brown on both sides and then remove from pan. Quickly add chocolate chips to make the pumpkin face.
BUTTERMILK SYRUP
I served them up with some yummy Buttermilk Syrup! So easy to make and yet so good!

Thanks Lynn! How is the writing going?
You HAVE to check out http://www.jimspancakes.com!! He doesn’t change up the recipe all that much, but he does occasionally use food coloring, and he definitely experiments with some UH-MAZE-ZING shapes! Enjoy!!
I just checked that site out…holy cow! That is a feat! 3D pancakes. My kids would love those. I am afraid I am going to have to stick with the easier kind :) Serious talent.
Adorable! I just “pinned” this! :-)
Thanks for the pin Gina! And thanks for always leaving such nice comments. You are the best!
So cute! My little guys would love this. We just had pancakes for dinner at a friends and they had the most delicious caramely buttermilk syrup that would probably be great with these!
OOOhhhh! Did you get the recipe I hope? Sounds awesome.
You are so creative. My inspiration!
Thank you so much Christy. That made my day!
