When I hear September, I instantly think of all the fall things, from sweaters to pumpkin so what better way to welcome this new month than with pumpkin oat pancakes. These are dairy free, gluten free, and refined sugar free and packed with protein from the oats. I love oat pancakes because they keep me full until lunch and have the best texture.
For these pancakes, you can make your own oat flour by placing gluten free rolled oats into the food processor and blending until it is a fine flour. Once you have your flour, mix together the wet ingredients first, then add in the dry ingredients, and ta-da your batter is made! I love sneaking in veggies like pumpkin into these pancakes for extra nutrients and vitamins. I also added in my favorite Primal Palate Pumpkin Pie Spice to give it some extra flavor and delicious taste!
These pancakes are so easy to make, they are ready in less than 10 minutes and my favorite way to enjoy them is topped with some maple syrup and the Classic Revival Nut Butter (use code GIRLSWHOEAT for 10% off their website)! I promise you will be making batches of these pancakes all fall long!
Substitution Ideas:
- Pumpkin Puree: if pumpkin is not your thing, you can easily do sweet potato puree
- Coconut Oil: you can also use ghee or butter
