Mini Pumpkin Pancakes Lunch

Cook once, eat twice. That’s our motto.

Dinner isn’t the only meal that creates leftovers.  Double up on this breakfast favorite to cheer up Monday’s lunch!

On Sunday morning  our kitchen is transformed into a pancake factory. I usually make a double batch of warm, fluffy pancakes, so I can freeze half for a quick and  easy breakfast later on in the week.  Just pop them in the toaster oven and BOOM, breakfast is served.

After visiting the pumpkin patch on Saturday, this pumpkin lovin’ mommy came up with the perfect Fall recipe. Pumpkin Pancakes! Instead of freezing ALL of the leftovers, I packed a fun Breakfast For Lunch!

Along with some fresh fruit and leftover sausage, I made sure to pack some syrup and fresh whipped cream for dipping.

 

Pumpkin Pancakes

8-10 regular sized pancakes or 24 mini pancakes

Ingredients

  • 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp. brown sugar
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable oil or melted butter

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and pumpkin pie spice and stir to combine.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, pumpkin puree, egg and oil or butter. Mix until there are few to no lumps left.
  3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk together just until combine.
  4. Over low-medium heat skillet. When skillet is hot, spoon batter into the skillet.
  5. When pancake starts to bubble slightly, carefully flip over.
  6. Serve with whipped cream and maple syrup.

    Any spice or spice combo that could be used instead of pumpkin pie spice? Maybe cinnamon? Or apple pie spice?

    Thank you so much, ChefCorey! I used this recipe with some tweeks (bananas, coconut-almond milk, cinnamon & nutmeg and butter only as cooking oil) and my daughters loved it! It was a great late brunch to wind down from a long hurricane Sandy recovery week. We were pretty much fine in Brooklyn but my daughters residence in manhattan was without power or water or food! A great way to return to the normal hustle & bustle of the city madness.
