These grain free pumpkin spice pancakes are so tasty! I think the addition of the pumpkin puree really makes for a heartier, fluffier pancake when compared to just coconut flour pancakes. These are a great breakfast to serve for a lazy autumn saturday morning!
How To Make Healthy Grain Free Paleo Pumpkin Pancakes
The great thing about these pancakes is that they are grain free, dairy free and nut free! So what’s in them? Here’s a list of the main ingredients used to make these pumpkin pancakes;
- Coconut flour
- Pumpkin puree
- Full fat coconut milk

- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp vanilla
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp full fat coconut milk
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar
- 2 tbsp coconut oil or ghee for the pan
-
Mix together ingredients and blend with a hand blender or food processor. Make sure that there are no lumps of the pumpkin in the batter.
-
Heat the coconut oil or ghee in a skillet under medium heat, I like to use a cast iron griddle like this. Wait a moment for the pan to heat up. Place about 1/3 cup or less of batter in the skillet and slightly flatten and round with a spoon. Let cook for a few minutes or until the pancake has firmed a little, then flip with a spatula.
-
Repeat for the remaining batter. Enjoy with maple syrup or just plain!
I love pancakes with pumpkin spice, these look great!
Has anyone tried freezing these? Would they work for a freezer meal?
can you use regular white vinegar instead?
We tried this recipe and followed it to a T except we used egg replacer instead of eggs and they didn’t cook well at all. They stayed like raw batter for a really long time and then just became like fried dough. Any ideas what went wrong?? I was really looking forward to pumpkin pancakes.
Yep, you replaced the eggs with egg-replacer. These won’t work with egg replacer, they need real eggs. When you use coconut flour, you really need a good binder like eggs to work with it 🙂
Any suggestions for not using the egg (no dairy)?
Eggs aren’t dairy. Milk and products from cows, sheep, goats are dairy. Sorry, since this recipe uses coconut flour it won’t work with any egg substitutes.
how would I modify this recipe to use it to make waffles?
Two questions: 1. What is the purpose of the vinegar? 2. Is the sugar really needed? Thank you!
The vinegar reacts with the baking soda to make it fluffy and you can omit the sugar if you want.
I made these this morning with leftover roasted butternut squash and they turned out great! Very tasty and quick to make. Now I’ll want to make them again tomorrow morning they were that good and just so easy.
Its nice to see a GF pancake recipe that doesn’t use almonds!
Thanks Elizabeth, glad you liked them! I recently made a double batch of these and was reminded how good they are…and now I want to make them again too 😉
With the exception of coconut sugar (which is now in my Amazon cart) I had all the ingredients on hand to make these pancakes for breakfast this morning. They were delicious and even my husband, the pickiest eater on the planet, liked them. Thanks for sharing!
Great! So glad to hear it Sue!
