Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cast iron griddle or non-stick pan
  • Whisk
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix
  • 2 tbsp hemp seeds
  • 2 tsp ground flax meal
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/3 plus 1 tbsp of water Add additional water 1 tbsp at a time if batter is too dry
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup sprouted pumpkin seeds *optional
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, mix pancake mix, hemp seeds, ground flax meal, and cinnamon. Use whisk to combine until everything is well mixed.
  • Add in water and pumpkin puree and whisk until everything is just combined (do not overmix). If batter is too dry, add in additional water 1 tbsp at a time until the consistency is pour-able but not watery.
  • Heat griddle or non-stick pan under medium low heat and pour or spray enough oil to coat the entire surface. Pour batter according to your preferred pancake size. For smaller pancakes that are about 4 inches in diameter, use about 1/3 cup of batter per pancake.
  • Sprinkle pumpkin seeds over the poured batter if desired. Once you start to see small bubbles forming on the surface of the batter, it is time to flip. Allow pancakes to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes then remove from pan and place on a cooling rack until they are ready to serve.
