Good morning loves and happy Pancake Sunday!
A couple of weeks ago, a little Nerdy Birdy asked me if I could whip up a batch of pancakes that would satisfy her cravings for the wonderful flavors of fall, yet not leave her gluten-intolerant tummy upset with her.
No grain? No Pain? No Problem! 😉
Filled with pumpkin spice and EVERYTHING things nice, you’d never even guess that they’re grain free!

love buckwheat groats!! drooling over your pancakes – want!!!
Wow! Those look amazing!
Thank you Natalie! They were absolutely delicious! 🙂
At first I thought that was crumbled bacon on top! Which I do believe would be equally as good! 😉 yum!
Haha! That’s what a few people said on Instagram too…which now has me thinking of a whole NEW recipe! 😉
Beautiful pictures and beautiful pancakes. You my dear have a talent. You should do a pancake cookbook.
Awww, thanks love! One day…oh one day!
Oh my… buckwheat pancakes?? You speak my language now. You better be careful… I may have to come to TN for pancake Sunday!! 😉
Well if that’s all I’ve gotta do, bring on the buckwheat! 😉
okey doke. I had socca for lunch – so I was supposed to have a big ole slad for dinner. After this post? PANCAKES! Yay!
Yay!! Breakfast for dinner always wins in my book! 😀
Foodgasm. That is all.
You take recipe requests?! How did I not know this… You need to make something with those [Lucky Charms] marshmallows that you picked up! Pot o’ gold pancakes! 😀
This weekend was Thanksgiving up here in Canadaland, so we had a whole host of Fall-flavored eats. Maple sweetened sweet potatoes, pomegranate glazed turkey, plum cake, figgy bars… I think I’ll be digesting for the next week and a half 😀
Of course, I’m always up for a little recipe inspiration…and too funny, because I was just thinking about popping some of those marshmallows in some pancakes the other day! Lol I just wonder if they’ll end up getting soggy in the batter. Hmmm….
Ohhh, I may not be ready for Christmas, but I can’t WAIT until Thanksgiving! Sounds like you had a delicious feast! Pomegranate glazed turkey? Yum!
you take such beautiful pictures!!… but your recipes, that’s another topic. they ALWAYS sound so good!
Thank you so much, Jessie! 😀
YUM! The pancake queen has done it again! 😉 Definitely pinning these.
This weekend was Canadian Thanksgiving so I had tons of fallish eats – butternut squash, turkey, pumpkin pie, and about a million other things! Also the day before I made a beef and root vegetable stew, which was such a cozy fall dinner!

pure genius. again.
I really don’t think there is anything about this I don’t want to stuff into my face right now. In fact, I’d actually prefer if you’d make these big enough for me to sleep on. It would make midnight snacking really easy.
Hahaha! Oh my gosh girl, you’re killing me! I’m sitting here picturing you rolling over to nibble on your pancake pillow in the middle of the night! Lol
