The pumpkin buttermilk pancakes let you eat this dish for breakfast, but with so much sweet stuff happening it could easily double as a decadent dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
Pumpkin Pie Pancakes
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup oatmeal
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 Tbsp oil
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ginger
- Dash of cloves
Maple Pecans
- 1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 6 Tbsp maple syrup (*I use unfiltered Grade B maple syrup)
Maple Cinnamon Whipped Cream
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1–2 tsp maple syrup, to taste
- ¼ tsp cinnamon, to taste
Instructions
Pumpkin Pie Pancakes
- Mix the dry ingredients.
- Stir in the wet ingredients.
- Heat a griddle to medium heat and cook the pancakes until they are golden brown on each side.
- Serve the pancakes with maple pecans and maple cinnamon whipped cream.
Maple Pecans
- Melt the butter in a sauce pan over medium heat.
- Mix in the maple syrup and add the pecan pieces.
- Stirring constantly, cook the pecans for approximately 10 minutes or until the maple-butter glaze boils and thickens.
- Let the glazed pecan pieces cool completely.
Maple Cinnamon Whipped Cream
- Mix the ingredients together and beat on high using a hand-held mixer or a KitchenAid mixer with the whisk attachment. It will take several minutes for the liquid cream to transform into fluffy peaks.
- If you beat the whipping cream until it is too stiff you can add more cream and continue beating. This is also a good trick if you are using leftovers the next day. Leftover whipped cream often starts to separate and lose its form. Simply add more cream (if need be) and whip it again.
