Oh for you lovers of pancakes and pumpkin I have a recipe for you! Such a perfect fall recipe with less than 250 calories per serving!
My idea for this recipe originated from a previous post
“Sunday Morning Oatmeal Pancake for One”. To add fiber and reduce the amount of calories (compared to a traditional pancake recipe) both recipes skip the flour and add oats. Compared to my first pumpkin recipe, this time I wanted to create a recipe designed for the whole family (serves 4). With that being said I have also made this recipe as a single serve recipe. You just need to divide the ingredients by 4.
For the glaze I used yogurt to provide a creamy and tart flavor while still not adding significant fat. It seems like I have been adding yogurt to my recipes like crazy lately! Yogurt can add a wonderful moistness and serve as a fat replacer. There will be plenty more recipes with yogurt.
I am excited about additional pumpkin recipes I plan to work on! What are your favorite pumpkin recipes?
