INGREDIENTS
Ingredients
For the Pancakes
- 300g self-raising flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 100g pumpkin puree
- 400ml cup milk
- 2 large eggs
For the toppings
- Maple syrup
- Chocolate chips
- Pecans
- Whipped cream, cream cheese and cinnamon to make a delicious cream cheese frosting!
For the Pancakes
- In two seperate bowls, mix together the wet ingredients – half the milk, egg and the pumpkin
- In the other bowl combine your dry ingredients – flour, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, ginger and a pinch of salt.
- Stir your dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture adding the rest of the milk as you go, add more milk until you reach the consistency you desire.
- Heat your pan with a light coating of oil over medium heat. The trick is to cook your pancakes low and slow.
- Ladle the batter onto your pan using about 2 tablespoons of the mixture.
- When the pancake starts to show bubbles forming flip it over, cook until nicely browned. You can always cut your first one in half to gauge if it’s cooked all the way through.
- If you’re making a lot of pancakes place them on a baking tray in the oven on a low setting to keep them warm.
For the toppings
- Obviously what you place on pancakes is completely up to you, we went with toppings that would enhance the spices fall flavours
- To make a cream cheese frosting we combined whipped cream, cream cheese, and a teaspoon of cinnamon. You could also add sugar or vanilla if you’ve got a sweeter tooth
