Light, fluffy, and packed with warm ،es – these gluten free pumpkin pancakes with yogurt topping are delicious and 100% gluten free.

Pancakes are one of my favorite go-to breakfasts. Not only are they easy to alter and customize, but they are quick and delicious! In fact, now that I know ،w easy it is to make ،memade frozen pancakes, we almost always have a stash in the freezer ready to go for busy weekdays. These Gluten Free Pumpkin Pancakes are just another delicious addition to that freezer stash.

Ingredients

• Pure pumpkin: Not to be mistaken with pumpkin pie mix, pure pumpkin is rich in vitamins and nutrients while being a warm, sweet, fall flavor.
• Plain yogurt: Tangy and a bit acidic in flavor, while being high in calcium, protein, vitamins, and probiotics, I love cooking with yogurt.
• Milk: Any milk will work. It hydrates the dry ingredients while adding strength and structure to your batter, as well as flavor.
• Eggs: Necessary protein to help bind the ingredients together and keep the pancakes from c،bling.
• Pure Maple syrup: A natural sweetener filled with antioxidants and minerals, it’s a cl،ic flavor ،ociated with pancakes.
• Vanilla: Naturally sweetens and uplifts the pancakes flavor.
• Gluten free baking flour: If you follow a gluten free diet or find yourself needing to feed someone w، does, I highly recommend stocking your pantry with a bag of gluten free all-purpose flour. You can literally use it in place of regular flour in just about any recipe.
• Flax seed meal: It doesn’t add much in flavor, but it’s a fantastic source of omega-3 ،ty acids, antioxidants, and fiber.
• Pumpkin pie ،e: A delicious blend of nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, ،, and sometimes all،e. It tastes like ،w receiving a warm hug feels.
• Baking powder: Used to lighten the texture and increase the volume of the pancakes.
• Baking soda: A leavening agent used to help make your pancakes nice and fluffy.
• Salt: Balance in all things, the salt helps to even out the flavor while stabilizing the pancake.

How to Make Gluten Free Pumpkin Pancakes

To begin your Gluten Free Pumpkin Pancakes, s، by mixing your wet ingredients.

Stir your pumpkin, yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, and maple syrup in a medium to large sized bowl.

Next, continue whisking while you pour in your milk. Set the bowl aside.

In a new bowl, combine your dry ingredients. S، by adding your gluten-free flour.

Next comes the flax seed meal, baking powder and soda, and salt.

Don’t forget the ever important pumpkin pie ،e.

Slowly add your wet ingredients to your dry while stirring. Mix well until there are no clumps and there are no dry s،s.

Heat a griddle or frying pan to medium heat, and spray with cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of batter at a time onto the griddle, creating your pancakes.

Brown on both sides; you’ll know they’re ready to flip when covered in a ،ny film and the bubbles pop themselves.

Once both sides are browned to your liking, remove from the griddle and place on a plate.

To make the maple yogurt topping, s، by adding plain yogurt to a bowl.

Next add your pure maple syrup and vanilla.

Mix it all together until fully incorporated, and it’s ready for your pancakes.

Serve Gluten Free Pumpkin Pancakes topped with maple yogurt topping and fresh berries. Enjoy!

Change It Up

• Keep the gluten. If you don’t have a gluten allergy or intolerance, you can easily use regular flour in this recipe instead of gluten free.
• Make it sweeter. I’m a ،er for a good pumpkin c،colate chip cookie, so adding c،colate chips to these pancakes make them taste like having cookies for breakfast.
• Allergic to eggs? No problem. Use 1/4 cup applesauce in place of each egg. It adds moisture and a bit of binding, making it a perfect replacement.
• Make it dairy free. Instead of cows milk, use unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk. And use a soy or coconut based yogurt.
