Vitamix pumpkin pancakes

Pumpkin Pancakes

Gluten-free, vegan, banana-free pumpkin pancakes made entirely in the blender. Rolled oats do the work of flour, aquafaba stands in for eggs, and dates handle the sweetness. Cozy fall flavor, minimal cleanup.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1/4 cup aquafaba liquid from canned chickpeas
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 1/2 cup rolled oats

  • 1 date pitted
  • walnuts to taste, optional

Equipment

  • Vitamix

Method
 

  1. Add all ingredients to your Vitamix in the order listed (liquids first). Blend on high for 20 seconds until smooth.
  2. Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease. Pour about 1/4 cup batter per pancake. If using walnuts or chocolate chips, sprinkle on top while cooking. Cook 2-3 minutes until bubbles form, flip, and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden.

Notes

Naturally gluten-free and vegan. Aquafaba is what gives these a fluffy texture without eggs — don't skip it. Leftover pancakes keep in the fridge for 3 days or freeze well for longer.
