Butternut Squash Pancakes
Butternut Squash Pancakes blend roasted mashed squash with almond milk, maple syrup, and warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. These pancakes offer a lightly sweet, tender texture with a subtle earthy flavor from the squash. Served with yogurt, maple syrup, and walnuts, they make a cozy and flavorful breakfast or brunch option.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup butternut squash mashed, roasted
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- 2/3 cup almond milk or coconut milk, unsweetened
- 3 Tbsp pure maple syrup or brown sugar

- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients for the pancakes to a blender. Blend until completely combined. Allow batter to sit 10 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet over medium with enough oil to coat the surface.
- Pour a scant 1/4 cup of pancake batter on the hot skillet and cook about 2 minutes, until the sides have firmed up and air bubbles rise to the surface. Flip and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes, or until cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
