Pumpkin Pancakes with Cinnamon Apples - Autumn breakfast recipe. Pumpkin breakfast pancakes made from scratch topped with apples in cooked in butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Lots of Fall flavors in this delicious breakfast!
What do you do when you have too many apples? You make breakfast pumpkin pancakes with cinnamon and brown sugar flavored apple topping, of course! If you thought that pumpkin pancakes with caramel pecan sauce were delicious, wait until you try these pumpkin pancakes with cinnamon and nutmeg spiced apples - so delicious!
To make the apple topping, I am using my recent recipe for sweet cooked apples, which can be easily doubled or even tripled, especially if you happen to have too many of them:
After turning your fresh apples into cooked ones, you might end up with just a few left. I love having fresh apples for a snack during the day!
Pumpkin pancakes + cinnamon and nutmeg and brown sugar cooked apples make a very filling and nutritious breakfast. My favorite Autumn breakfast.
It's a great recipe to make over the weekend when you don't have to hurry and can easily spend 30 minutes to prepare this deliciousness. It's also perfect for the holidays. Who could refuse a stack of pumpkin pancakes covered with delicious apple slices on Christmas morning?

When I looked at the ingredients for this recipe I thought it sounded like a lot of pumpkin but decided to give it a go regardless. The cooked pancakes look fantastic however there is just too much pumpkin and regardless of how long you cook them the batter is too heavy and when you bite into them it’s like eating canned pumpkin, very gummy and unappetizing. I bake a lot and unfortunately this one was not a keeper.
So sorry to hear about that! Reduce the amount of pumpkin puree to 2/3 cup or even 1/2 cup next time. Thank you for your feedback!
