Pumpkin Oatmeal Pancakes are a great fall breakfast. The pumpkin makes them fluffy and moist. The oatmeal and whole wheat flour makes them a healthy option that will keep you full for quite a while.
The batter is easily made in a blender and the pancakes cook in only 5-6 minutes. I will give you mixing directions without a blender as well. You can cook them on a griddle or in a skillet. This recipe makes a dozen pancakes. If that is more than you need don’t worry! The extra pancakes will freeze nicely.
Pumpkin Oatmeal Pancakes would be a fun breakfast for both Halloween and Thanksgiving. If you want to try some other fall pumpkin breakfast options check out Pumpkin Crumble Muffins, Pumpkin Waffles,Cream Cheese Pumpkin Bread, Pumpkin French Toast and Pumpkin Baked Donuts.

Use a metal spatula to turn the pancake over and cook another 2-3 minutes until the second side is slightly browned.
If you are cooking the pancakes in batches in a skillet, place the first batch into a 200 degree preheated oven on a baking sheet to keep warm while you cook the remaining pancakes.
