I saw these pancakes in a 2008 issue of my favorite magazine, Life Beautiful.
And I have made them twice in the last three days.
They are delicious!

These pancakes are easy and quick, but so rich and decadent. Especially with an extra sprinkling of cinnamon over the top… I felt like I was eating at a fancy restaurant!
Well, except for the baby screaming and the basket of folded clothes at the end of the dining room table.
Just sayin.
Can I set a mood or what? Lets try again.
I can just see these sweet and satisfying pancakes on a cold, snowy Christmas morning with a cup of this fabulous Pumpkin Spice White Chocolate Cocoa.
Sound better?
Ingredients
- Pumpkin Spice Pancakes
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp all spice (or pumpkin spice)
- 1 beaten egg
- 1 cup milk (or buttermilk)
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- In large bowl combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and all spice. In a separate bowl, mix together egg, milk, and pumpkin. Add the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture and blend until just incorporated. (lumps are ok)
- Cook pancakes as you normally would.
- Note: This is a dense batter, and you might not see bubbles form as quickly as they normally would. Look for the top to no longer be shiny and for bubbles around the edges as a sign to turn over.
Extra options: Top with toasted pecans, maple sugar glaze, or a powder sugar/cinnamon blend.

Seriously. Try them.
Its like having dessert for breakfast!
Yummy pancakes and gorgeous pictures!! Love the light!
Pumpkin pancakes are a favorite in our house too!! I’ll have to try your recipe next time! thanks Amanda!!
Gorgeous pictures too……I just want to reach in and take a bite
I heart pumpkin pancakes! I need to make some ASAP! Thanks for the reminder!
Yummy!!! You’re speaking my language. And you set the scene perfectly. In my house they stand by me and ask if they’re ready and shove in to be “first”…
Yum! Makes me almost wish for a snow day from school…almost!
Delicious!! I have been looking for a good recipe! Will give them a try!!
Perfect for a fall morning! Yummo!

Okay your picture looks like it needs to be *in* a magazine! Tempting my friend! And this looks so good. I usually pour some pumpkin puree into a {gasp} boxed mix. I bet yours is oodles better.

I’ll take a large stack. Delivered. You can be here by 8am tomorrow morning, right?
That looks perfectly yummy! I bet I could eat them even without teeth
Can you bring me a stack?
that looks delicious! I might make them for the hubby this Sunday as a special treat
YUM! I made The Smitten Kitchen’s apple crunch for breakfast this morning. We’ve been cold cereal-less for almost two months now! I’m so excited to have that gone.
These look like a WONDERFUL addition (ha! I just started to type addiction)to our morning line up! YUMMY!
Wow!
pancakes are my favorite food!

Oh sweet pancakes! I really love pancakes.
I will surely try your pancake edition here. Thanks for sharing! Yummy!!
I love having pumpkin things for breakfast! I tried pumpkin waffles, pumpkin bread and pumpkin muffins, I’m only missing pumpkin pancakes
Oh looks very yummy!!!!
Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I’m having some serious pancake envy at the moment. I’m going to go dig in my pantry.
Oh, my, I’m definitely going to have to try these! I go a little pumpkin nuts this time of year, but I have never made pumpkin pancakes before! (My husband LOVES pumpkin, so I have a feeling these will go over pretty well around here!)
Hello – I just made these for breakfast and although they are delicious… is that a typo for the baking powder? My batter came out like muffins and two tablespoons seems like a lot?!
love the addition of cornmeal to these — brings in a nice crunch.
I’ve got the day off on Friday, and these are DEFINITELY going to be my breakfast!!! I am so excited I can barely contain myself! This post came at the perfect time too, because I have half a cup of pumpkin leftover from another recipe, waiting to be used. These pancakes are fate! Love!
I made these…They’re so good! Thanks for sharing!
I finally tried them! SO very yummy. Becca wants them for her birthday breakfast.
Oh..Im drooling!
How many will this recipe make and will they freeze ok?

I don’t make pancakes very often, but pumpkin pancakes are always so fluffy and full of wonderful flavors. These look marvelous!
I like pumpkin pancakes topped with apple butter and whipped cream
