Delicious Homemade Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe

Fluffy pumpkin pancakes packed with pureed pumpkin, fall spices and topped with walnuts and honey butter. Ok, so I thought I found the perfect pancake with the sweet potato pancakes until I tried these amazing pumpkin pancakes! I had a half used can of pumpkin lying around yesterday morning and decided to make these scrumptious pumpkin pancakes. They cook up so amazingly fluffy! They had to be at least an inch thick! The perfect kind of pancake if you ask me! There is nothing better on a cool and rainy fall morning than a stack of warm and fluffy pancakes!

How to Store Pumpkin Pancakes

If you have leftovers of these pumpkin pancakes you can store them in the refrigerator. Once cooled, put the pancakes in a freezer bag or in an airtight container. The pancakes will last about 4 days in the refrigerator. If you do not think you will eat them before they go bad, you can always move them to the freezer. To reheat, use the microwave or the toaster.

Can I Freeze Pumpkin Spice Pancakes For Later?

I love to make a large batch of pumpkin spice pancakes. I will often make a double batch of these pancakes. I keep some in the refrigerator so that I can reheat them the next day or so for breakfast and then I take the rest of the pancakes and store them in the freezer. I like to add a piece of parchment paper or wax paper between each pancake. This lets me take a few out as I want them but I don’t have to take the whole batch out of the freezer. When you are ready to eat the pumpkin pie pancakes, you can reheat the pancakes in the microwave. You can actually reheat these pancakes from frozen which makes it a great breakfast idea even on the busiest mornings.

Can I Add Nuts to My Pumpkin Pie Pancakes?

While I normally put the nuts on top of my pumpkin pie pancakes, you can certainly add the nuts directly to the batter. You will want to make sure the nuts are chopped into very small pieces or you will not be able to have many nuts in the pancake and it will be difficult to get nuts into every bite.
