Pumpkin oatmeal pancake ingredients including milk, cinnamon, and ginger.

Ingredients

To begin, you’ll use my handy Oat Flour Recipe to get your easy healthy pumpkin oatmeal pancakes started.

Then you’ll just need to round up the rest of the simple and wholesome ingredients. Most of which you likely already have on hand…

  • Oat Flour – store bought or use my simple Oat Flour Recipe. If gluten free, use certified gluten free old fashioned oats.
  • Pure Pumpkin Puree – not pumpkin pie filling!
  • Milk – you can use either 2% or whole milk.
  • Eggs
  • Butter – because everything is better when you use REAL butter!
  • Sugar – you’ll use just a touch to add a gentle sweetness to your oat pumpkin pancakes.
  • Baking Powder – make sure your baking powder has a good expiration date!
  • Vanilla – to add rich warmth to your pancakes.
  • Salt – to enhance the other flavors.
  • Cinnamon – I recommend a higher quality cinnamon for best flavor.
  • Nutmeg, Ginger, Allspice, Cloves – These are the remaining spices for your homemade Pumpkin Spice Blend.

You’ll also need a kitchen blender, and either a cast iron or non-stick skillet or griddle for preparing this healthy pumpkin pancakes recipe.

    Pumpkin and dry ingredients in a blender.
  • Heat Cast Iron or Nonstick Skillet or Griddle to medium heat, spray or drizzle with cooking oil (I use Avocado Oil), and pour circles of batter (about 2 tbsp.) straight from the blender. Avoid large circles of batter, as smaller pancakes will cook all the way through better.
  • Cook low and slow to avoid burning.
  • Once several bubbles begin to appear around the edges of pancake, flip to brown other side.
  • Serve with Butter & Maple Syrup, and ENJOY!

Notes

  • Reheating Tip: If frozen, thaw in refrigerator before reheating. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply pop pancakes in the toaster straight from the refrigerator, and ENJOY!
