Paleo Pumpkin Cinnamon German Apple Pancake will be your new favorite weekend breakfast! Only 8 ingredients, grain-free, dairy-free, gluten-free and no sugar added!
Coming in hot with some pancakes….. actually a pancake. A big fluffy delicious pancake to be exact. For those of you who have never had a german pancake (or dutch baby), it’s basically a big thick pancake that you bake in the skillet.
Their is no flipping involved, so if you have weak flipping skills, this type of pancake is for you.
I used cassava flour here since it is the closest to all-purpose flour and rises nicely in this recipe. I was having all the fall feels, so pumpkin and apple are both included!
Note: I got the cassava flour at Kimberton Whole Foods (they have a great selection of paleo-friendly ingredients!)

I didn’t even use any sugar in here becuase I thought it wasn’t necessary. If you add some maple syrup on top, I’d say you’re good to go. But if you want to add some more sweetness, I suggest adding in a couple tablespoons of coconut sugar.
Either way, you’ll love this german pancake! It soaks up maple syrup perfectly, and also goes well with a cup of coffee or tea!
