Kabocha Squash Pancakes
Kabocha squash pancakes with tahini and maple syrup.
This recipe was inspired by the culinary genius that is Marissa over at Pumpkin And Pomegranate.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats pulsed in food processor or blended until oat flour consistency
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt
- Generous sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice
- 1/8 cup NuNaturals Stevia Baking Blend (or sweetener of choice)
- 1/2 cup rice milk (or non-dairy milk of choice)
- 1 egg + 1 egg white (for vegan version, sub 2 TBSP ground flax seed mixed with 1/4 cup water)
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup cooked pureed kabocha squash (can sub any winter squash or sweet potato)
Directions:
- Stir dry ingredients together and set aside.
- Whisk together the wet ingredients and stir in cooked squash.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients.
- Fry pancakes in skillet with oil of choice. (I prefer unrefined coconut oil, ghee, or butter).

Molly, Yes, I’ve tried it Brownie Batter Pancakesand in these falafel balls. Worked just fine in both, and yes, please try the kabocha pancakes. So good!
Heabs, I have to make these minus the oats. What do think would be a good sub?

Justine, Marissa used buckwheat flour, and I’m sure any gluten free baking flour would work just fine. I want to try it with millet myself.
Mmm, this sounds like perfection! I haven’t had pancakes in a long time!
Holy cow I am trying these tomorrow. You better believe I will be letting you know how they turn out!
Justine, you can buy gluten-free oats now, if that’s the issue for you.
These pancakes look so good! I am definitely making these with my butternut squash that is dying to be used!
They were so good, and I think they’d be great with butternut squash. Enjoy Sarena!
hot diggity dawg! I just made a half batch, with pumpkin, coconut butter and maple. oh life is a-ok right now.
Celestial, Happy Pancake Sunday! Yours sounded delicious.
Hey Heather- I made these this am for everyone even the picky hubby ate it. I served them with tukey bacon and used my stevia-vanilla dropper instead of stevia and vanilla seprately. They were delicious. I had mine with maple syrup pb.
One question – how many does this recipe serve in your house??
Thanks so much!

Ozlen, So glad you enjoyed. Um, I ate the entire batch myself, but it should probably serve 2.
I had a kabocha pancake disaster this morning – these just wouldn’t solidify and flip for me. I cooked them until I was sure the egg was cooked and just ate them all squishy and flumpy anyway. They were delicious, but I’ll have to work on my form. They just needed a little something more to hold them together.
Carbzilla, As long as they were edible, then there was no disaster.
Hi Heather!
I’m generally incapable of following recipes but I managed to follow this one perfectly and the result was amazing! It is such a hearty and delicious breakfast. I’ve since modified it according to what I have at hand and how lazy I am and it always turns out delicious. I really enjoy your blog! I love the way you eat, I love butter, I love squash and pumpkin and many of your other favorites! Next stop: OAT BRAN!
Have a great day!
