    Ingredients

    Pancake batter
    • 1 3/4 cups So Good™ Unsweetened Almond & Coconut Milk
    • 1/2 cup (125ml) pumpkin puree
    • 1 tbs brown sugar, packed
    • 1 egg
    • 1 1/2 tbs vegetable oil
    • 1 1/2 cups brown rice or quinoa flour
    • 1/2 cup cornmeal
    • 1 tsp mixed spice
    • 2 tsp cinnamon
    • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
    • 1 tsp baking soda

    Dairy-free maple cream
    • 1 cup walnut or pecan halves
    • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
    • pinch fine sea salt
    • 2 tbs margarine
    • 340g firm silken tofu
    • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
    • 1 tsp ground cinnamon, optional


    Method

    1. Step 1

      Whisk together the So Good™ Almond & Coconut Milk Unsweetened, pumpkin, brown sugar, egg and 1 tbs of the oil in a large bowl. Whisk in the flour, cornmeal, mixed spice, cinnamon, nutmeg and baking soda until well combined.

    2. Step 2

      Heat a large non-stick frypan over medium heat. Lightly grease with the remaining oil. Stir batter once more (it will be thick). If batter is too thick, add an extra ¼ cup So Good™ Almond & Coconut Milk Unsweetened or water.

    3. Step 3

      Spoon 2 tbs of the batter into the pan. Use the back of a tablespoon to spread out the batter to make a 10cm circle. Pancake will be ready to flip when the underside is golden brown and there are bubbles on top, about 3-4 minutes each side.

    4. Step 4

      Flip and cook the pancake until the centre springs back when pressed. Keep pancakes covered to keep warm.

    Tips

    • To make 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, peel and remove the seeds from 500g pumpkin. Dice pieces and place in a saucepan and cover with water. Cook on the stovetop for 15 minutes, until tender. Pour through a sieve or colander. Leave to drain, then puree the flesh in high speed blender or food processor, or simply mash with a fork.
    • Yams make an excellent substitute for the pumpkin.
