- 1 egg
- ½ cup canned pumpkin
- 1 ¾ cups low-fat milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups whole-wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon stevia or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon potassium chloride salt substitute (optional)
Directions:
1. Combine eggs, pumpkin, milk and oil in large mixing bowl.
2. Add flour, natural sweetener, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt substitute to egg mixture. Stir gently.
3. Lightly coat a griddle or skillet with cooking spray and heat on medium.
4. Using a ¼ cup measure, pour batter on hot griddle. Cook until bubbles begin to burst, flip over, then cook until golden brown.
Optional: Put a face on the jack-o-lantern, using raisins for eyes and teeth (drop in batter while it cooks).
Tips:
Replace the vegetable oil with applesauce to cut calories, and use whole-wheat flour instead of white flour to add fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
