Pumpkin pancakes are an easy, cozy breakfast made for a relaxed autumn morning. Our recipe is crafted with real pumpkin, a dash of vanilla and the perfect balance of fall spices.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s just as simple to stir together as any pancake recipe, but we love this one a little bit more for helping us savor the feeling of fall.<\/p>\n
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, yogurt, pumpkin, canola oil and vanilla extract. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix the batter.<\/p>\n Preheat a griddle over medium heat, and lightly coat it with cooking spray. Pour the batter by 1\/3 cupfuls onto the griddle. Cook them until bubbles begin to form and pop on the tops of each pancake and their bottoms are golden brown. Flip the pancakes, and cook until the other side is golden brown. Serve with a drizzling of maple syrup.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip: <\/i>We\u2019ll let you in a little secret for keeping pancakes warm so you can serve them all at once: Preheat your oven to 250\u00b0F, and place a baking sheet inside. Add your cooked pancakes to the baking sheet until you finish your last batch.<\/p>\n Cool the pancakes to room temperature, then store them in an airtight container in the fridge for a maximum of three days.<\/p>\n Yes, you can freeze pumpkin pancakes. Cool the pancakes completely to room temperature, then layer them in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag. Place sheets of parchment or waxed paper in between the stacks so the pancakes don\u2019t stick together. Store in the freezer for up to three months.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Reheating from frozen is a breeze. Simply place the pancakes on a baking sheet, cover with aluminum foil and warm the pancakes in a 375\u00b0 oven until the pancakes are heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This pumpkin pancake recipe is easy to make, but there are a few tricks for crafting the perfect stack. We consulted with Mark Neufang<\/a>, one of our Test Kitchen cooks, for pointers on this recipe.<\/p>\n The trick to fluffy pancakes, according to Mark, is to not overmix the batter, which can develop the gluten and make the pancakes tough and flat. If you still see some streaks of flour and a few lumps in the batter, that\u2019s good! The flour will incorporate into your pancakes as they heat up on the griddle.<\/p>\n As Mark explains, the oil in pancakes keeps them moist and helps them brown more evenly. While you can substitute melted butter for oil, the milk solids in butter tend to heat up and cook faster on the griddle, resulting in uneven browning. If you\u2019re having trouble with your pancakes, be aware of other mistakes you\u2019re making with your pancakes<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A fall morning is complete

I quadrupled the recipe because there were 7 of us.Delicious! They ate them all up. I made the recipe just as it says and I don't think I would change anything except I used 1\/4 cup measure to place them on the griddle and I spread them out a bit. This will be a keeper and I am sure cooked and mashed squash or sweet potatoes would substitute well if you didn't have pumpkin on hand.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}}]},"video":{"data":{"status":204},"message":"No shortcode found in recipe"},"rms_legacy_id":"82264","romance_copy_dek":"A fall morning is complete with a flickering candle, a steamy beverage and a stack of these pumpkin pancakes.","enhanced_recipe_title":"Pumpkin Pancakes","rms_legacy_data":{"RecipeCategories":null,"Ingredients":[{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/3 cup all-purpose flour","IngredientText":"1\/3 cup all-purpose flour"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/3 cup whole wheat flour","IngredientText":"1\/3 cup whole wheat flour"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"2 tablespoons sugar","IngredientText":"2 tablespoons sugar"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/2 teaspoon baking powder","IngredientText":"1\/2 teaspoon baking powder"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/2 teaspoon baking soda","IngredientText":"1\/2 teaspoon baking soda"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice","IngredientText":"1\/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon","IngredientText":"1\/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"Dash salt","IngredientText":"Dash salt"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1 large egg, room temperature","IngredientText":"1 large egg, room temperature"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/2 cup fat-free milk","IngredientText":"1\/2 cup fat-free milk"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/3 cup vanilla yogurt","IngredientText":"1\/3 cup vanilla yogurt"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/3 cup canned pumpkin","IngredientText":"1\/3 cup canned pumpkin"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1 tablespoon canola oil","IngredientText":"1 tablespoon canola oil"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1\/8 teaspoon vanilla extract","IngredientText":"1\/8 teaspoon vanilla extract"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"Maple syrup","IngredientText":"Maple syrup"}],"FeaturedImage":"https:\/\/tmbidigitalassetsazure.blob.core.windows.net\/rms3-prod\/attachments\/37\/1200x1200\/Fluffy-Pumpkin-Pancakes_EXPS_FT23_82264_JR_1011_5.jpg","RecipeId":82264,"AttachmentSourceId":null,"AttachmentSource":"Taste Recipes","PhotoCredit":"Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe photo by Taste Recipes","VideoCode":null,"RecipeAttachmentFileName":"Fluffy-Pumpkin-Pancakes_EXPS_FT23_82264_JR_1011_5.jpg","ContributorId":null,"Firstname":"Mindy","Lastname":"Bauknecht","City":"Two Rivers","StateDescription":"Wisconsin","IsCommunityCook":false,"TimeCallout":"Prep\/Total Time: 30 min.","MinimumServingQuantity":2,"MaximumServingQuantity":2,"Yield":"2 servings.","DigitalTitle":"Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes","SubmittedTitle":"Pumpkin Pancakes with Yogurt","RecipeTypeId":1,"AverageRating":4.69,"WebPublishedDate":"1\/1\/2018 12:00:00 AM","ContestPlacementId":null,"FbImage":"FB_FT23_82264_JR_1011_6.jpg","PreparationTimeInMinutes":20,"CookTimeInMinutes":10,"TotalTimeInMinutes":30,"ServingDescription":null,"IsTestKitchenCertified":true,"IsContestWinner":false,"IsCommunityRecipe":false,"PublishedProjectTitle":"Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes","OriginalSourceProject":"Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes","ContestPlacement":"","Trailer":"Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fluffy Pumpkin Pancake Tips<\/h2>
Is canned pumpkin the same as pumpkin puree?<\/h3>Canned pumpkin is not exactly the same as pumpkin puree. Canned pumpkin is typically made of a blend of pumpkin and other winter squashes, while pumpkin puree is 100% pumpkin. Canned pumpkin and pumpkin puree can be used interchangeably and are preferred in baking as opposed to fresh pumpkin. Not only is canned pumpkin convenient and already prepared for use, but its overall flavor and texture is more balanced in the final product. Read more about our canned versus fresh pumpkin test.
What\u2019s the trick to fluffy pancakes?<\/h3>The trick to fluffy pancakes is to not overmix the batter, which can develop the gluten and make the pancakes tough and flat. If you still see some streaks of flour, that\u2019s good! The flour will incorporate into your pancakes as they heat up on the griddle.
Why do pancakes need oil?<\/h3>The oil in pancakes keeps them moist and helps them brown more evenly. While you can substitute melted butter for oil, the milk solids in butter tend to heat up and cook faster on the griddle, resulting in uneven browning. Check out the mistakes to avoid when making pancakes.Research contributed by Mark Neufang, Taste Recipes Culinary Assistant<\/a\u00a0href=\"https:><\/i> <\/a\u00a0href=\"https:><\/a\u00a0href=\"https:>","Metadescription":null,"DigitalHeadnotes":"These pumpkin pancakes are also delicious served with butter or whipped topping and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice.
