Ingredients
Pancakes:
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup milk (I used skim)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup canned pure pumpkin
- 1/2 cup mashed banana (about 1 large)
Pumpkin Spice Syrup:
- 1/2 cup canned pure pumpkin
- 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and cinnamon. Add the milk, vanilla, melted butter and egg, and whisk until well combined. Stir in the pumpkin and banana.
- Melt some butter on a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Using a small ladle or 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop batter onto hot griddle. Cook until bubbles begin to appear on top of the pancake, then flip and cook until golden on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- To make the syrup, whisk the pumpkin, maple syrup and pumpkin pie spice in a small pan over low heat until warm and smooth. Serve warm syrup over warm pancakes.
