i had a half a can of pumpkin puree sitting in my fridge and i was about to go on a wonderful trip to visit my best friend and meet her beautiful babies... what to do with the pumpkin so it doesn't go bad? pumpkin pancakes of course!

3/4 cup of pumpkin puree

1 cup of milk {i used almond milk}

1 cup of flour

2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla

2 tsp baking powder

2 Tbls sugar {i used agave nectar}

oats {i subbed some of the flour for extra oats}

directions:

mix all dry ingredients very well. add wet ingredients and mix again.

heat a non-stick skillet, add cooking spray or oil. 

pour your pancake batter and wait for it to bubble before flipping.

makes about 7-10 silver dollar size pancakes.

i enjoyed mine with a dollop of greek non-fat yogurt and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
