Pumpkin Oatmeal Pancakes

my newest breakfast sensation: pumpkin oatmeal pancakes! i first found the recipe here (at katheats.com) and made a few minor changes. they are SO good and really filling!! and it just so happens these guilt-free pancakes are gluten free and dairy free and reaaally YUM! i definitely suggest giving them a try :)

Pumpkin Oatmeal Pancakes
serves 1

-Ingredients-
1/4 cup canned pumpkin (pure pumpkin, NOT pumpkin pie mix!!)
1/4 cup oats
1 egg (or 1/4 cup egg whites)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 small handful of golden plump raisins

-Directions-
1. mix all ingredients together in a small bowl
2. cook over medium heat like a normal pancake (makes 2-3 pancakes depending on size--i used a little olive oil for cooking)--dont try to flip it too early or it may fall apart a little!!
3. top with a little pure maple syrup or agave nectar OR your favorite fruit or nut creation!
4. ENJOY!!

TRY THEM AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!!

  2. I have made then twice. Once with raisins and once with a combination of dried blueberries and cranberries. Both were delicious! Also, I topped with toasted walnuts (always toast your walnuts - soooo much better!) and real maple syrup - simply divine!!!
