Instructions
How To Make Pumpkin Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes
In a medium bowl, mix the oat or almond milk, pumpkin, maple syrup, baking powder, apple cider vinegar, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until the liquid is combined and then mix in the flour until the batter is smooth.
In a small seperate bowl, mix together the soft butter, cinnamon, and sugar to make the cinnamon swirl mixture. Transfer this into a plastic bag or pastry bag.
Bring a skillet or griddle sprayed with oil to medium low heat. Once the pan is warm, spoon in about 3 tablespoon of batter per pancake. Use your pastry bag or plastic bag to drizzle a thin swirl into each pancake. Cook the pumpkin pancakes until bubbles form on the top and then flip. Each pancake should be golden on each side. You should have about 16 pancakes.
Serve warm with powdered sugar, maple syrup, or cream cheese frosting.
