Yes, the season of pumpkin spice everything is here! And I’m not going to be an exception with this oh so yummy pancake recipe. Lazy weekend mornings, delicious pancakes, what’s not to love.
These delicious pumpkin spice pancakes are easy to make and they are a great breakfast for the whole family. I LOVE this pumpkin pie spice mix and I’ve been using it in my hot chocolates and coffees too. It just makes regular pancakes so much more special!
I have used roasted butternut squash which I mashed up and mixed with the regular pancake ingredients. If you have a pumpkin pure then go ahead and use it. (Have you read my mac and cheese recipe yet? Save time and use your other half of squash to make it). Adding the pumpkin spice mix made this recipe feel like a proper autumnal weekend morning.
As a topping, I used blended dates with bananas, oat cream and walnuts.I had some honey with these but maple syrup would be great too. My toddler loved these pancakes and weirdly, she liked them best just plain, on their own. Well, why not, they count as 1 of your 5 a day for sure!
Whats more to say then just go and make these and do not feel guilty as you are actually eating vegetables for breakfast! Hurray!

- Cut butternut squash in half and roast for 30 mins on 180 degrees. You can peel before roasting or after or not at all but if you don't make sure you blend it very well. Let cool down and mash with a fork and combine well with other ingredients. Ladle out small amount into a hot pan. Fry for about three minutes each side.
- Pour some boiling water over dates (I used ten dates) just to cover them and let sit for five minutes. Then blend with one ripe banana to make a smooth creamy mixture. Scoop up on the stack of pancakes. Drizzle over some single cream (I used oat cream) and honey. Sprinkle with some chopped walnuts.
