Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup pumpkin I used canned, puree
  • 2/3 cup coconut milk full-fat, canned
  • 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil or coconut oil
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour gluten-free
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt sea salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom optional
Maple-Toasted Walnuts & Pumpkin Seeds
  • 2 teaspoons grapeseed oil or oil of choice
  • 1/3 cup walnut chopped, raw
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds raw
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt sea salt

Instructions

Make the Pumpkin Pancakes
    Cup of Yum
  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).
Make the Maple-Toasted Walnuts:
  1. 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.
