Vegan Pumpkin Pie Pancakes Recipes

VEGAN PUMPKIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine almond milk and vinegar together in a measuring cup; set aside for 10 minutes.
• Combine water and flaxseed meal together in a bowl; allow to rest until gelatinous, about 5 minutes.
• Combine flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
• Add almond milk mixture, flaxseed meal mixture, pumpkin puree, and coconut oil to the bowl with the flour mixture. Mix until well blended. Fold in pecans.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

FLUFFY VEGAN PUMPKIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in a bowl.
• Stir milk, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, oil, and water together in a second bowl; mix thoroughly. Make a well in the flour mixture, add milk mixture, and mix until evenly combined.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Drop 1/4 cup pancake batter onto the hot skillet and cook until bubbles form and edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

VEGAN PUMPKIN PIE PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, combine the soy milk, canned pumpkin, and corn oil and process until well blended. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing with a few swift strokes until just combined.
• Use a skillet to make pancakes as you would with regular pancake batter.

FLUFFY VEGAN PUMPKIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• To a medium bowl, add the flaxseed and water. Mix to combine. Set aside for 5 minutes to gel up.
• To a 2-cup or larger measuring cup, add the vinegar. Fill with almond milk to the 2-cup mark. Set aside for a couple of minutes to curdle a bit and form a buttermilk.
• If your coconut oil isn't yet melted, you might want to set it in a small saucepan over low heat to melt while you prepare your dry ingredients.
• To a large bowl, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Whisk to combine.
• To the medium bowl with the flaxseed mix, add the almond milk mix, melted coconut oil, pumpkin, brown sugar, and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
• Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and mix with a whisk just until incorporated. Don't overmix - that can develop the gluten in the flour and lead to tough pancakes!
• Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. They'll start to puff up and that'll give you fluffier pancakes! While the batter rests, preheat your non-stick griddle or a large frying pan over medium heat (or, if it's an electric griddle, set to 325 degrees Fahrenheit).
• If desired, melt a little vegan butter on the cooking surface (I like Earth Balance). If your surface is non-stick, this probably isn't necessary. Using a 1/3 cup measure (or, my pancake scooping weapon of choice, a trigger-handled ice cream scoop), pour the batter onto the griddle or into the frying pan. The pancakes are ready to flip when they look a little dry around the edges and start to form little bubbles, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until golden and completely cooked through, about another 90 seconds or so. I like to give these vegan pancakes a bit of extra time on the grill vs. traditional pancakes. They like to be nice and golden before being flipped, or else the inside might not cook through quite enough.
• Serve immediately topped with vegan butter and maple syrup, if desired.
