Sourdough Pumpkin Pancakes

I love anything pumpkin and wanted to create a recipe similar to my Perfect Pancake recipes but with the addition of pumpkin. These turned out delicious and will be making these pancakes all year long!

Ingredients

2 eggs

1 1/4 cup fed sourdough starter

1/4 cup can pumpkin

Dash of salt

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil

1/4 plus 1 tbs flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/4 cup of buttermilk or oat milk

1 tablespoon of maple syrup

1 tablespoon of sugar

Additional butter/coconut oil to cook with

Steps

Mix together the pumpkin, eggs, sugar and sourdough starter.

Add in the spices, maple syrup, milk and melted butter.

Next sift in the flour with the soda.

Mix well and let the mixture sit for 10 minutes.

Tips

Take a ladle full of the mixture and pour in the heated skillet. Use the back of the ladle to move the mixture around the skillet in a circular motion. This will help thin the pancake out and will allow it to cook thoroughly. This technique can be adjusted so you can the right amount of thickness that you prefer for your pancake.

I usually cook one pancake at a time. I find this method works to make a perfectly cooked pancake. Of course, if you have a large family, you can always have a couple of skillets going on your stove.

I wait until there are tiny bubbles covering the top of the pancake before I turn it over. These sourdough pumpkin pancakes usually just take a couple of minutes as they are not too thick.

Enjoy!
