I am downright giddy this morning.
The sun is finally here and the temperature is warm! And it is supposed to stay this way for the Thanksgiving weekend.
I feel like running a marathon.
Ok, maybe not a full marathon, but I am excited for my run today. ;)
Yesterday I got out for a 4 mile run and it was glorious. If there is one thing I have learned it is that no matter how gloomy the weather, getting outdoors will always boost my mood! I felt amazing after my run yesterday (and no falls).
This morning I had some pancake business to take care of after yesterday’s debacle…
Meet yesterday:
Don’t ask.
Meet today:
The angels are singing, can you hear them?
Spiced Up & Stacked Pumpkin Butter Pancakes For One
Adapted from my healthy Spelt Pancakes For One
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup stone ground Kamut flour (or flour of choice)
- 3/4 cup almond milk
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste or 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 tsp cinnamon + dash of nutmeg + dash ginger
- 1/2 tbsp sugar
- Pinch sea salt
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- Pecans
- Homemade Pumpkin Butter
Directions: Grease and preheat a skillet on the stovetop. In a medium sized bowl, mix the dry ingredients (baking powder, flour, sugar, sea salt, spices). In a small bowl mix the wet ingredients (vanilla, almond milk, coconut oil (melted). Add wet to dry and whisk well. Pour less than 1/4 cup per pancake and cook until bubble form. Flip and cook until golden on the opposite side. Layer with Homemade Pumpkin Butter and pecans and sprinkle with coconut. Serves 1.
I’m seriously addicted to this Homemade Pumpkin Butter.
At each meal, I ask myself: Is there any way I can somehow incorporate pumpkin butter? ;)
These were incredibly delicious.
Today is the last day for voting in the Project Food Blog Challenge #3. I would greatly appreciate your support in carrying me into the next round!
I’m off to bake up my orders and hopefully cap the work day with some much needed paper work and some last minute baking for Thanksgiving.
Have a great day! :)

These look great. Also, I wish I were half as chipper as you in the morning. That’s how energetic I sound at 11 pm, when I should be heading to bed.
Yum!! I think I know what I’m having for breakfast on Saturday! ;-) I’m always looking for more uses with my pumpkin butter too!
They sure do look incredibly delicious!
Those pancakes look amazing. I love the deep brown color — perfect for Fall.
I ask again, why isn’t Frank in the pics? :)
Those look amazing and healthy! Will attempt them asap :)

Pumpkin butter is SO good! So easy to make too. Cute pancakes!
Nice weather can make all the difference in a run. Fall is such a perfect time because it’s just cool enough and the gorgeous scenery makes the run just fly by!
I’ve missed your pancake posts. These look amazing! :D
Ok, yum. I would be singing myself if I had those pancakes for breakfast!!! :)
The sun is finally out here in Boston as well. After 4 days of rain…it’s about time!!!!
I was going to try your pumpkin smoothie but I forgot to get pumpkin from Whole Foods last night! Now I have another incentive to buy it!
your bfast looks amazing!
I love how cozy your table is! :) so fall!
Haha – great minds think alike! I saw your pumpkin butter post and made my old go to recipe for it yesterday. Then I had to figure out what to eat it on… I made oatmeal pancakes this morning and covered them in pumpkin butter :D.
SUCCESS!!! The pancakes look wonderful!! :)
I can’t wait to make some pumpkin butter, your’s looks wonderful. It’s to bad it’s unsafe to can. :( Luckily I’ll have lots of homemade, canned apple butter to get me through the winter.
Those look innnncredible! Of course, your table setting still does, too! Beautiful.
yummmm i want those pancakes! and i am trying out that pumpkin butter recipe maybe today if i have time, i’m so excited :D
I feel like your mornings always look straight out of Martha Stewart Living! Come to think of it…are you sure you’re not Martha Stewart in disguise?!? :-)
Oh, I am jealous! haha. I made pumpkin pancakes for breakfast this morning too, but they did NOT work out. They looked a lot like your pancakes yesterday… I just have a hard time with them; I don’t know why!
I love the new “possibly related posts.” Just discovered your coconut peanut butter pancakes! Nice addition :)
Beautiful pictures of fall Angela. I noticed these pancakes (the actual pancake) are fluffier than the spelt for one pancake….or maybe my eyes got so big when I saw them that they look fluffy :)
I love that you used coconut oil in this recipe.
I added more baking powder this time so that might have something to do with it…and also the Kamut flour perhaps?
YAY for sunshine! I also went out and took a bunch of tree photos on my way to work this morning – how weird is that?? The pumpkin butter looks delish, and sounds like a great alternative to syrup. I’m not a big maple syrup girl so I think I’ll try this next!
Im so proud of you for taking pics on your way to work! lol
The first picture in this posts sent shivers down my spine! It is SO beautiful. I love fall! This post reminded me of growing up in Vermont where the leaves are beautiful in the fall…That picture made me so happy!!
Oh my gracious those pancakes look absolutely splendid! And so do the leaves, I am in love!
OH my goodness. Those look delicious. Can I come over for breakfast? I love the trees and leaves and all the fall colors. Melt my heart!
I made these as soon as I read this post. They are so good, especially with the coconut oil added to the batter. I added choc. chips and bananas!
I am getting seriously hungry looking at these pancakes. Really giving me the extra incentive to make that pumpkin butter!
Your house seriously looks like Fall. I LOVE it!! Fall is seriously my fav season! I can almost smell the crisp air, pumpkin, and cinnamon coming from your house! haha
I made some cranberry cinnamon maple granola yesterday, and seriously, my house smelled like the holidays. That smell made me so happy inside!
I look forward to your posts every day! I wonder how these would’ve tasted with a little canned pumpkin in the batter?
I was thinking about doing that and I got side tracked by the pumpkin butter. :) Im sure it would be fab!
Wow, that breakfast sure beat mine ( Ezekiel low sodium bread with peanut butter)! I am planning on making a batch of the pumpkin butter this weekend and seriously can’t wait! I have been thinking of all the things I can put it on (kind of like you)!
I’ll be making these pancakes very soon! Looks perfect for the fall!
oh ang, you need to start a food magazine or have your own food network show!!!!!!!!!! these look so perfect!
That’s just not fair. My breakfast will not compare to this and you live too far away for me to force you to make me some ;)
I certainly didn’t wake up with such a good attitude this morning! It’s hard when I only have to be up super early two days a week and TODAY is one of those days. *yawn*
Those pancakes look absolutely delicious. You are brilliant at plating and photography.
Wow, those look perfect! I need some pumpkin butter ASAP! (love your pancake FAIL yesterday– that’s how mine look almost all the time!) LOL :)
I am so making these tomorrow morning. No classes = pancakes. Quick question, though, can I sub in something for the coconut oil??
Yup you can use any type of mild oil…olive oil would work well here.
canola oil too
Uhmm.. considering thanksgiving/autumn is my favorite time of year, and I don’t get to celebrate until next month, and all your food makes me drool, and your atmosphere is absolutely perfect, can i just come over and celebrate? hahaha these look AMAZING!
Fine by me, just bring pumpkin butter. I might run out….tomorrow. ;)
The pancakes look great with the fall leaves! You’re so awesome at food styling!
PANCAKE STACKERS! There’s just so much stuff you can stack them with. Mmmmmm. Amazing and so fall-y!
the angels are singing and i CAN here them! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH (that was singing… :))
I have had the song ‘angels we have heard on high’ in my head all morning! LOL
Wow those leaves are gorgeous! As are the pancakes…I think I know what I’m having for breakfast Saturday :)
Your table looks so Fall-like! I love it!
Mmmmmm…. those look so good and as always, beautiful photography! Definitely going to try them out. Glad that you are in a good mood, sunshine always helps! :)
these.
look.
to.
die.
for.
and i LOVE the fall foliage in the background!!! i was just noticing how pretty our foliage is outside of our office window to a coworker who sits next to it… i think i appreciate it way more than he does, but its the small things, right?
This is the most fall-looking post I’ve seen this season!!! I love it! Those pancakes look delish and this whole post makes me want to have a cozy day at home and make some pumpkin butter!
I can’t wait for the trees here to look like that :)
Not only do these sound amazing & look beautiful, but those beautiful autumn leaves are making me jealous!!
Ooh wow those look delicious. I love pumpkin butter!
xo
Kris
everytime I see your comment I smile!
These pancakes look incredible!
Your pictures are so captivating and beautiful lately.
Baking for Thanksgiving!? You’re on top of it!
You do seem to be enjoying pumpkin lately! The pancakes do look heavenly though, I grant you.
What lovely light!!!!!
Did you take those pictures during the golden hour? The warmth of them is all together incredibly inviting! :)
Thanks :) I think they were taken around 8:30?
Lovely :)
i LOOOVE everything about Fall, all those pictures are amazing, love those colors.
Those look delicious! I’m so very obsessed with any fall flavor right now. I made your pumpkin gingerbread vegan overnight oats the other day and almost died and went to heaven. I can only imagine how delicious these pancakes are!
You’re so right about getting yourself out for a run- it ALWAYS makes me feel better. I never come back from a run in a huff or angry. Gotta love those endorphins! :)
I LOVE this quote “I never come back from a run in a huff or angry”
SO SO true
Every morning I am asking myself how I incorporate pumpkin too! It’s just way too delicious!
Can never get enough pumpkin! =)
Holy smokes, those look amazing!!! I LOVE the way you photographed them with fall leaves and gourds. I aspire to taking food shots for my blog as nice as these are!!!
It’s crazy to think that your Thanksgiving is so much earlier than ours! You’re getting me in the mood for stuffing and I know I still have to wait another month! Thaaaaaaanks ;)
These pancakes look gorgeous! I bet they tasted pretty, too… pretty nutritious, that is!
Those look DIVINE!!!! Yum!
I am not getting sick of all the pumpkin!! LOVE IT!
your photos melt my heart Angela!
Your pancakes are absolutely stunning! Love the fall leaves too.
Happy Thanksgiving Ange!! Here’s to more beautiful weather
Those pancakes are seriously a work of art..how could you eat them!?? Oh yes, that’s right, the pumpkin butter :) I just got myself a jar of Trader Joe’s version and am seriously in love, its soo good!
Those stack of pancakes just look…incredible! omg wow!!
Hope you have a super day and good luck with getting all your work done. Ugh. Piles of papers to push are not as fun as the piles of pancakes :)
Holy YUM! I’m totally drooling over these! I am going to have to make your pumpkin butter ASAP. I am equally obsessed with fall and agree that everything must have some sort of pumpkin twist to it! :)
I am so incredibly sorry! I apologize, I live in NYC, and this wholeeeee time, I was thinking, “Wow, she is preparing for thanksgiving a month early! She must really love thanksgiving.” And then today in your post, you mentioned that thanksgiving is this weekend… and I googled it, and I am so sorry! I thought you were slightly crazy ;) enjoy your thanksgiving! And pumpkin butter is absolutely amazing, I bought the one in trader joes when they were in stock, but I shall make a homemade batch soon :)
I picked up some pumpkin butter from the orchard farmhouse when I went apple picking last weekend. I had never heard of it before, but I knew immediately I had to try it. I think I’ll be slathering some on my next stack of pancakes :)
JUST made your balsamic dressing for the first time and I cannot wait to eat it up tonight. Maybe tomorrow I’ll hit up those pancakes!! Yummmmmm
Wow girl.. those look AMAZING! And I think I need to try my hand at homemade pumpkin butter..
I’m pretty sure I can hear those angels singing!
Those pancakes are making me drool!
Love the background scenery taken with the pancakes. Fall has arrived :)
I love bouncy mornings :) They make getting up and hitting the gym or pavement that much more enoyable! Good to see you had a pancake success- they look delicious! Although, I’d still happily eat the stuck-to-the-pan version, too ;)
Theses look amazing!
Sunshine always perks me up, no matter the temperature. But a string of grey days gets me down every time.
I am so obsessed with pumpkin anything as of late, as well. I’m actually eating some pumpkin pie overnight oats as I type! I’m definitely going to have to have some pumpkin for dessert, too, and these pancakes look like a lovely idea for breakfast tomorrow!
Gorgeous photos of your breakfast.
Q: Do you think I can make cupcakes from the pumpkin gingerbread recipe you posted the other day? I really want to try it!
Wish I had time to make these in the morning! Maybe this weekend…
wow, your pancakes look soooooo good! Mine NEVER turn out like that! But I shall try again this weekend…mm pancakes on the brain now
how come your pancakes looks SO much better than mine?!? I want to eat the computer screen.
Canada has there Thanksgiving a lot sooner then the us. Those pancakes look amazing, second times the charm.
Angela,
Those pancakes look excellent!
I don’t know if you’ve done it before, but I tried adding a tablespoon (heaping) of canned pumpkin, a dash of ginger, and a dash of nutmeg to your single serving spelt pancake recipe, and it was amazing! So amazing it’s been my breakfast for three days straight. Worth a try if you haven’t done it already. Especially good with walnuts as a topping.
Oh my goodness!!! I’m making these ASAP! :)
Those photos are absolutely perfect. You are a superstar.
You’ve inspired me to try out your pumpkin butter recipe! I got a pie pumpkin in this week’s CSA, so trying out your recipe with fresh pumpkin! Great photos as well!
I love how your table is still decorated!
Have you ever attempted to make pumpkin butter using fresh pumpkin?
I know it’s a lot more laborious, but canned pumpkin does not exist in my neck of the woods.
These look amazing!!
Oh my goodness – had to tell you i just made your Pumpkin Gingerbread cake! While it was cooling, I was finishing up my yoga for the night and, OH MY, I was loving all those deep breathes with the smell of pumpkin gingerbread in the air :)
Love the photos! Pancakes look delicious!!!
Your pictures are just fantastic, they belong in a glossy magazine!!
Wow! Those look amazing! and only made for one!? I’m about to dig in on that plate of pancakes! Yumm!
So creative and gorgeous! I’m going to try a version of this on Saturday! xo
I just made these! They are incredible :D.
Just made these for breakfast this morning – its not even fair how delicious they are!! Thanks Angela!!
Hi Angela,
In the last few weeks I have been having so much fun trying your recipes, with much success! I tried these pancakes this morning, with almond flour instead of kamut. The pumpkin butter turned out delicious. The pancakes however totally fell apart. Do you think it is the almond flour that did me in? They tasted good, but just did not stick together at all.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Dana
