What’s the difference between Pumpkin Puree and Pumpkin Pie Filling?

Pumpkin Puree is cooked squash that is mashed up with no spice or sweetener added to it.

This is normally used to make breads, muffins, cakes, pancakes and soups.

Pumpkin Pie Filling is cooked squash already seasoned with spices such as ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg and sweetener.

When you are in a rush to make a pumpkin pie, then this flavored mixture will be a great convenience to you – quick and easy method.

For this recipe, I used a Canned Pumpkin Puree and not a Pumpkin Pie Filling.

Can I freeze these Pumpkin Pancakes?

Yes, these easy Pumpkin Pancakes are freezer friendly.

Allow the pancakes to cool completely on a cooking rack.

Then place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and flash freeze them for about 30 to 45 minutes.

Remove and place them in a freezer friendly container and place them back in the freezer for up to a month or two.

To reheat, you can place them on a microwave safe plate and microwave for a few seconds.

Another option is in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Place the pancakes into a foil packet or place them on a single layer on a baking sheet cover with aluminum paper to prevent them from drying out.

Bake them for about 10 minutes or until all of them are warm.

How to make these Pumpkin Pancakes?

Firstly, preheat a griddle or a large non-stick skillet on medium heat.

Secondly, whisk together all the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
