I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! We sure did. Boy, did it go by fast, though.
For those of you who have been patiently waiting for the pumpkin pancake recipe as promised, Macho Man (that’s my husband, in case you are wondering) delivered and gave me the pumpkin pancake recipe today! Here it is:
Perfect Pumpkin Pancakes
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 egg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS:
1. Mix together the milk, pumpkin, egg, oil, and vinegar. Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, ginger and salt in a separate bowl. Stir. Gently mix the moist ingredients with the dry, just enough to combine.
2. Heat a lightly oiled* griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Scoop the batter onto the griddle, using ¼ cup measuring cup* for each pancake. Brown on both sides.
*Note: Swiping butter across the frying pan instead of oil makes for really tasty pancakes. Also, these pancakes freeze very well between wax paper. We often make smaller pancakes of about 1/8 of a cup so to have less waste for smaller eaters (a.k.a. Kids).
And now you have the prized pumpkin pancake recipe! A healthy one, too…only 1 tablespoon of oil. Give it a try!
Until next time,
Muncho Mom
That sounds really yummy! I might just have to try it and compare it with the one I used yesterday morning! Mine didn’t use vinegar, and I used Fiber One pancake mix instead of the flour, baking powder, and salt. I also didn’t use any oil in the batter, but I DO use butter on the griddle. They were delicious, too!! Thanks for sharing this with us, and tell Macho Man that he’s a real jewel for letting you give away his trade secrets! Have a great day!!
I believe vinegar must be the “mystery ingredient” in many recipes! We will have to try these, as Pop loves pancakes and pumpkin! I’m also telling my friends where they can find some good recipes!:-)
Vinegar!?! Would not have guessed, Mama B is right, must be the secret ingredient in a lot of things!!
Hmmm, would like to make a request…would like to have these next visit….PLEASE!!!
