- 3.7 ml ground cinnamon

Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
If using a fresh pie pumpkin, peel and seed it, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Fill a medium saucepan with enough water to cover the pumpkin and add 1 teaspoon of the sea salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
-
Step 2.
Add the cubed pumpkin to the boiling water and cook until soft enough to mash, about 15 minutes. Drain the pumpkin in a colander and let it sit for 5 minutes to drain thoroughly.
-
Step 3.
Mash the drained pumpkin with a fork into a pulp, or use a food mill. You should have about 2 cups of purée. Set aside.
-
Step 4.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the remaining 1 teaspoon sea salt, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, and coconut sugar. Whisk to blend.
-
Step 5.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, melted coconut oil, and eggs until smooth.
-
Step 6.
Slowly fold the wet almond milk mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
-
Step 7.
Gently stir the pumpkin purée into the batter until evenly incorporated.
-
Step 8.
Heat a cast iron pan or griddle over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil and let it melt, tilting the pan to coat the surface.
-
Step 9.
Working in batches of 2 or 3 pancakes, spoon 3 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the hot pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles form in the center and the edges look dry.
-
Step 10.
Flip the pancakes and cook for 2 minutes more without moving them. Serve immediately with maple syrup, coconut cream, or a dust of cinnamon.
