Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp large flake oats
  • 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice see below for recipe
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp almond flour
  • 1 tbsp almond milk
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp pure pumpkin
  • 1/4 tsp maple syrup optional

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in a magic bullet or blender and blend really well.

  2. Heat a skillet on medium heat. Spray olive or avocado oil on pan if needed.

  3. Pour pancake mixture into skillet. Bubbles will appear and some will pop. Flip when the edges are drier looking and the underside is browned.

  4. I used plain greek yogurt with a drop of English Toffee flavored stevia (recommend by the way - way better than just liquid stevia), to put on top of the pancake. Also, I sprinkled pomegranate seeds (good fiber source), fresh raspberries and pumpkin seeds on top. I may have also drizzled a teaspoon of maple syrup on top, but I'll never tell. It's certainly not necessary though. It's quite delicious without.

    Note: You could also eliminate the maple syrup from the recipe if you were wanting a "sugar-free" pancake.
