These delicious savoury pumpkin pancakes are really easy to make, and are the perfect breakfast, lunch or supper for the whole family!
I know my last recipe was for pancakes (these ham and cheese galettes) but I seem to be making various types of pancakes pretty frequently at the moment. Not only are they toddler friendly (Mini Jones can eat a surprising about at one sitting!) and a great finger food, the whole family love pancakes, whatever the time of day – which is always a winner in my book as it means less cooking for me!
These savoury pumpkin pancakes use pumpkin puree – which is pretty easy to make (see tip below) and lasts for 3-6 months in the freezer, so I tend to make double the amount then freeze half to use later.
I use cornflour in the recipe as I tend to find Australian flour heavier then other country’s flours. If you don’t have cornflour you can use potato starch, tapioca starch or rice flour.
This recipe serves 2 adults and 1 toddler.

Savoury Pumpkin Pancakes
Ingredients
3/4c plus 2 tbsp/ 100g plain flour
2 tbsp/ 20g cornflour
2 tsp baking powder
3-4 tbsp/ 20-30g parmesan, finely grated
3/4c /200g pureed pumpkin
1 large egg, beaten
1c /250ml milk
olive oil, for frying
Method
In a large bowl, mix the flour, cornflour, baking powder, and parmesan together.
In a seperate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree with the egg and milk and whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients over the flour mixture, then stir lightly to combine.
Heat a non stick frying pan over a medium heat and add a little olive oil (about a tsp). Place tablespoonfuls of the batter in the pan - depending on size of pan you can cook 2-3 pancakes at a time.
Cook for 2-3 minutes until the underside is golden, then flip over and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
These sound so incredibly delicious! I have never had a pumpkin pancake before, but I will certainly be changing this soon! YUM!
Thankyou Alexandra!
