Pumpkin Pancakes

Ohhhh yeah these thick, fluffy pumpkin pancakes drenched in maple syrup are the perfect thing to eat with a piping hot cup of tea, whilst laying in bed, watching the rain outside, snuggled up to the person you love....or you could just eat them on your own, whatever takes your fancy....


Thick and Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes
3/4 cup plain flour
1/5 tspn baking powder
1/4 tspn baking soda
1 tspn mixed spice
1/2 tspn ground ginger
3 tbspn maple syrup plus extra for serving
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
3/4 cup milk
1 large egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger and mixed spice.

Add the maple syrup, pumpkin, milk, egg and vanilla and whisk until smooth.

Heat a nonstick fry pan over medium heat or if you have one, a pancake maker and grease with a little butter.

Drop tablespoons of batter into the pan and cook until golden. If using the fry pan you will need to then flip and cook the other side until golden.

Serve immediately with butter and maple syrup.

This recipe makes 6-8 good sized pancakes so depending on the size of your pancake stacks, would easily serve 2-4....or even just 1!!

Hope you are all having a fantastic week!
