I use the Trader Joe's multi-grain pancake mix, add some almond meal and ground flax.
Then, instead of the oil, I added 1/3 cup pumpkin puree, and 1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce.
Add 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice, and start flippin the 'cakes!
As a topping, I knew I wanted to use my pumpkin butter I had, but I also wanted to add something with some texture. Enter: plums. I deemed them a fall fruit, acceptable to pair with pumpkin.
Cooked apples would also work nicely.
Saute 1 sliced plum with 1 heaping Tbsp pumpkin butter, and 3 Tbsp water.
Let this bubble and reduce, and pull it off the heat, right when it starts to look like a caramel sauce, but before it burns!
Top warm pancakes with pumpkin glazed plums.
Yum.
Happy Fall :)
