Fluffy, gluten-free, and vegan pancakes for a cold winter morning. Sweetened by pears with hints of cinnamon and vanilla, you’ll want to get out of bed, even on the coldest darkest day!
It’s winter and that means it’s PEAR season! Growing up, my mom only ever bought the good ole’ Bartlett Pear. She still does and I just told her recently that she needs to branch out and try some of the wilder varieties. There’s nothing wrong with the Bartlett, they just seem to ripen so quickly and need to be eaten asap. But they’ll always remind me of my childhood. The comfort fruit.
Now-a-days, some of my favorite varieties include the Green Anjou, Red Anjou, Comice, and the Starkrimson. The Anjous are my favorite, with their tough skin. Sweet and hearty, but crisp and with a bite! Other varieties include Bosc, Asian, Concorde, French Butter, Seckel, and Forelle.
What better way to combine this good-feel fruit with the extra comfort of pancakes for breakfast? I’d say it’s a win-win and will easily get you out of that winter morning funk! I used two beautiful and nutrient dense flours that work with the sweetness of the pears beautifully. Oat flour and buckwheat. To make things even more enjoyable, you’ll find subtle notes of cinnamon and a bit of vanilla. This luscious stack is topped with a dollop of natural pear butter to tie it all together!
Cinnamon Pear Oat Pancakes
Ingredients: (serves 1)
+ 3 TB Gluten-Free Oat Flour
+ 2 TB Buckwheat Flour
+ 1/2 Tsp Ener-G Egg Replacer
+ 1/4 Tsp Baking Powder
+ 1/4 Cup Pear Puree
+ 1/4 Tsp Pure Bourbon Vanilla Extract
+ 1/4 Tsp Cinnamon
+ 1/3 Cup Water
+ Pear Butter (for topping, I use Kauffman’s Fruit Farms)
Directions:
+ In a small bowl, mix together the first 4 ingredients with a fork. Next add the last 4 ingredients to the bowl and mix again until you have a nice batter.
+ Heat a non-stick pan, rubbed with some coconut oil, over medium heat.
+ Once the pan is hot, add about 1/3 of the batter in a circle on the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes, flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes. Repeat for the rest of the batter.
+ Feel free to top your pancakes with whatever you’d like. I used pear butter with extra cinnamon swirled in! I then put a dollop on each pancake, acting as “glue” for the pancake stack!
Not only are all pears delicious, but they are also full of vitamins like C, K, B2, B3, and B6, fight free radicals, are full of fiber to keep us full and protect our hearts, are low glycemic, and are one of the most hypoallergenic fruits available, making them “safe” for everyone.
So while it’s still peak season for the beautiful pear, load up and make some pancakes while you’re at it 😉 You’ll be glad you did!
So tell me:
+ What’s your favorite variety of pear?
+ What’s your favorite winter fruit?

CJ Huang says
January 16, 2015 at 11:54 amSounds like some yummy pancakes! I recently tried some seckel pears, and I have to say I like the flavor a lot more than the “regular old pears.” 🙂 I hope you can stop on by and share this or any other recipe with us on Five Friday Finds! (Open until midnight Wednesday.)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 16, 2015 at 12:08 pmThank you CJ! I just love all pears!

January 13, 2015 at 12:55 pmRebecca ~ I’m not a pancake fan because they’re usually sooo heavy! But I could get down with these! Pinning! Thank you so much for sharing at Merry Monday! So glad to have you! Julia
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 13, 2015 at 1:07 pmWhat!? Pancakes do not have to be heavy! You could eat these everyday! They are 100% nourishing and healthy!
Robin says
January 13, 2015 at 12:16 pmThanks for sharing this. When my children were younger they had some food allergies and it was difficult to find recipes. Since celiac disease runs in my family I’m sure we will have to eventually rid gluten in our home so I will definitely save this recipe.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 13, 2015 at 12:45 pmWelcome! What allergies do you have?

kimmythevegan says
January 10, 2015 at 11:40 pmI’m not sure pears are in season here… I’ll keep my eye out. What a creative way to make pancakes! I’m guilty of loading mine with chocolate chips – this is a much better option =)
Love that they are gluten free. And the pear butter is a nice topping.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 11, 2015 at 1:49 am🙁 I will send you pears!
My pancakes are always a creative new combo! They just can’t be plain and boring!
Laura says
January 10, 2015 at 10:48 pmThese look amazing! I do not have celiac disease, but I do eat mostly gluten free. I have tried quite a few mixes that don’t come out quite right. I’m looking forward to trying your recipe! I bet the pears give these pancakes a unique flavor!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 11, 2015 at 1:39 amOat is lovely and such a nice neutral base, but buckwheat is my favorite and even the small amout here just brings so much deepth to the flavor…and color!
Raia says
January 10, 2015 at 7:20 pmWell, I’ve never met a pancake I didn’t like. These certainly look delicious! 🙂 Thanks for sharing them at Savoring Saturdays, Rebecca!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 10, 2015 at 7:33 pmHaha, me either!
Marla says
January 10, 2015 at 3:35 pmHi Rebecca,
Great recipe. Sounds delicious. My favorite pear is Bartlett or else Keffer, but I do like all pears. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays. Twitted & pinned.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 10, 2015 at 3:37 pmNever heard of Keffer!
Stephanie says

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 9, 2015 at 2:55 pmHope so too! You’ll love them!
Esther says
January 9, 2015 at 1:20 pmWow, those look really delish! Will have to try them for sure! I LOVE me some pears! 🙂

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 9, 2015 at 11:28 amThanks Emily!
Laura O says
January 9, 2015 at 7:35 amI ate so many pears when I was a kid that I really stopped liking them for a long time. I still don’t buy pears, but I LOVE the pears that my mother-in-law grows. I don’t know what variety they are, but they are a lost crisper than the store bought ones I grew up on.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 9, 2015 at 9:34 amYea, if I Have them to often I get sick of them! That’s happened before!
I’m sure any homegrown fruit is simply amazing!
Cindy (Vegetarian Mamma) says
January 8, 2015 at 11:49 pmThese look beautiful! (all your goodies always do!) Hope you enjoyed the winter break! 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 9, 2015 at 12:47 amThanks Cindy! I sure did 😉
Rebecca @ MyEagerFeet says
January 8, 2015 at 7:40 pmI think the pear is one of my least favorite fruits! I have been trying new produce this season at the grocery store, and I’ve fallen in love with persimmons.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 8:22 pmHaha! Persimmons are strange! I’ve only had them a few times, but they can be good!
Deborah @ Confessions of a Mother Runner says
January 8, 2015 at 4:39 pmCreative use of ingredients! I haven’t cooked with some of the alternative flour options. Thank for linking up with us again this week always great to have you.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 4:43 pmIt’s always fun to play around with different flour combos!
Thank you for hosting Deborah! XOXO
Arianna says
January 8, 2015 at 3:46 pmHow DELISH! I’d have to agree that the pear is definitely my favorite winter fruit. My mom gets them so I’m not sure what type she gets, but they’re a little more sweet than other ones I’ve tried. These pancakes look AMAZING!
XO,
Arianna // AriannaHenderson.com
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 3:48 pmI bet they’re Bartlett 😉
Thank you Arianna!
RFC says
January 8, 2015 at 7:35 amThese look delicious! Two questions (I’m not the best cook) could you substitute regular flour for gluten free, and real eggs for the egg substitute? My exception to a mostly vegan lifestyle is eggs, we have local friends who hand raise their chickens, and we get eggs from them. “Happy” chickens I call them 😉
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 7:56 amYes to the flour and just skip the tiny bit of egg-replacer here. The pear puree is the real “egg” here!
Alison says
January 8, 2015 at 6:19 amCan I just say yum, they look and sound delicious. Great flavour combination
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 6:23 amThank you Alison!
Alex says
January 8, 2015 at 4:52 amThese look delicious and you just reminded me that it has been ages since I made pancakes! Going to put it on next weeks meal plan.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 6:22 amYes! ASAP! Pancakes should be a weekly to-do!
Arman @ thebigmansworld says
January 8, 2015 at 2:58 amThose cinnamon sticks…I want to smoke them.
(not really, but kind of pretend to)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 6:21 amHahahaha! I still have a mass supply of them in the pantry!
GiselleR @ Diary of an ExSloth says
January 8, 2015 at 12:12 amI love pears, but I’m not sure I can name the different varieties or point them out to anyone. Definitely something I need to learn more about 😀
And grapefruits would have to be my favourite winter fruit.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 6:21 amLearn your fruit varieties girl! Haha 😉
Grapefruit is too sout for me, but I haven’t had it in years!
rachel says
January 7, 2015 at 10:11 pmYum . My favorite variety of pear is the Asian Pear. Yummy!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 6:19 amReally!? Do you like them just raw?
Kaylin @ Enticing Healthy Eating says
January 7, 2015 at 9:19 pmI wish we had more fresh varieties of pears in my region…we just don’t seem to have many options in Arkansas! Darnit. Oh, and I wanted to comment on your photography because I think you mentioned trying to improve? I have seen an improvement in your food photography (not that you were awful before, they just look even better) so I wanted to let you know! Good job and two thumbs up
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 6:18 amI think you should order some Harry and David’s pears! Haha!
Thanks! These are old recipe photos from the summer!
Farrah says
January 7, 2015 at 8:34 pmI know we’ve had a discussion on pancakes and how I really should get over my fear of making them, and I am ashamed to admit that I STILL HAVEN’T. ;_; Your super beautiful pancake recipes may force me to change this once I finish off everything in my fridge! <3 (I'm trying to clean out my kitchen/pantry, har har.)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 8:35 pmYou need to do it!!!!! I have a gazillion more pancake recipes to post and they only way you can taste the glory is to get over that fear!!!!!
Farrah says
January 7, 2015 at 9:23 pmI have a Foodie Friday theme designed specifically to get over said fear. It’ll happen this year, I promise! I’ll make it one of my 2015 goals, hahaha. 😛
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 8, 2015 at 6:19 amI’ll hold you to that! 😉
Jenny says
January 7, 2015 at 8:31 pmThanks for this! These look amazing! They even look kid friendly! I will have to try these soon. 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 8:32 pmThank you! Please do! They are great and healthy for the kids!
Natalie @ Feasting on Fruit says
January 7, 2015 at 8:26 pmI had to do a double-take before realizing that there isn’t any actual sweetener, just fruit sweetness! Gotta love fruit. Are there brands of pear butter without lots of sugar and other such things? I mean I could make my own I suppose, but, you know…laziness 😀
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 8:28 pmI use Kauffman’s Fruit Farms! Their a local company, but you can order from their website! They have natural homemade no-sugar fruit butters that are out of this world!
Natalie @ Feasting on Fruit says
January 7, 2015 at 8:30 pmOoh thanks! Their pumpkin butter looks quite tasty too 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 8:31 pmThat stuff is crack!
Amna says
January 7, 2015 at 7:38 pmI recently got a cookbook for gluten free recipes because i’m moving soon to Chicago, and I feel like I need to add this separately in my book!!!!! THIS LOOKS DELICIOUS!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 7:41 pmThanks friend!
Melissa @ Fit 'n' Well Mommy says
January 7, 2015 at 6:40 pmThese look so good! I love all pears, but Bartlett are probably my favorite!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 7:08 pmNothing wrong with the good old sweet classic!
Tiffany says
January 7, 2015 at 5:33 pmThese look so delicious- not to mention visually appealing!
Thanks for sharing!

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 5:39 pmHaha, thank you!
Shannon @ The Glowing Fridge says
January 7, 2015 at 3:08 pmMmm I still have yet to try that Ener-G Egg Replacer. Pear butter – I mean… YUM!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 3:09 pmIt’s not totally needed here, but I like to add it sometimes!
Patty @ Reach Your Peak says
January 7, 2015 at 2:47 pmCinnamon and pear is a combo I never would have thought of! I occasionally make pancakes on weekends where I have extra time and can actually take the time to cook (because I’m lazy lol). I do want to get a waffle maker too though – I’ve seen some delicious looking protein waffle recipes I can’t make!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 3:08 pmHow! That’s impossible!
I just got a new waffle maker for Christmas. I love it!
Hayley says
January 7, 2015 at 2:02 pmThese sounds so yummy! Can I ask what brand of flour you buy? And do you use protein powder? Thanks =]
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 2:06 pmMy flours are all different brands. There are no protein powders here as you can see. I grind my own gluten-free oats for the oat flour. I love Arrowhead Mills organic gluten-free buckwheat flour.
Betsy says
January 7, 2015 at 1:28 pmThose look delicious!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 1:44 pmThanks!
Honest mum says
January 7, 2015 at 1:25 pmThey are utterly stunning. Thanks for linking up to #tastytuesdays
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 1:44 pmThank you so much sweetheart!
Rachel says
January 7, 2015 at 1:06 pmI have a weird “relationship” with pears. With most fruit, I enjoy eating it raw as it is, but the texture of just biting into a pear drives me crazy. But when they’re dried or put into something (especially with cinnamon and vanilla like your pancakes) I love them!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 1:10 pmHahaha! Hey, as long as we get it in some way! I feel that way about apples, but reversed! I really just LOVE them whole and raw! Not cooked!
Alanna says
January 7, 2015 at 12:56 pmI honestly love all kinds of pears! They definitely top my list of favorite winter fruits. These pancakes look awesome!!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 1:03 pmI do love them! But I never seem to eat enough of them during their peak!
Elizabeth @ Enjoy Every Bite says
January 7, 2015 at 12:55 pmYum! The flavor combos seem perfect for a warm, healthy breakfast on a cold morning!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 1:02 pmThank! Yes they totally are!
Julia @ Swirls and Spice says
January 7, 2015 at 12:41 pmNever tried pear butter, but it sounds delicious! I must try the pancakes too!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 12:45 pmIt’s so good, you’ll love it! XOXO
Annemarie (Real Food Real Deals) says
January 7, 2015 at 12:37 pmThese look fantastic! My son loves pears, so he would be all over these.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 12:44 pmI bet! Thanks Annemarie!
Shashi runninsrilankan says
January 7, 2015 at 12:25 pmI had no idea there were so many varieties of pears!
Not only do these pancakes sound fabulous – but that pear butter – good golly yumly! 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 12:43 pmThere are just so many varieties of fruits out there! Gotta try them all!
The pear butter I use is from Kauffman’s Fruit Farm! Just pears and goodness! No added sugars!
Katie @ Gettin' My Healthy On says
January 7, 2015 at 12:13 pmYour creativity with recipes never ceases to amaze me. I’m not a huge pear fan, but this sounds pretty darn tasty. 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 12:19 pmHaha, thank you Katie XOXO
I bet this will make you fall in love with pears!
Sonali- The Foodie Physician says
January 7, 2015 at 11:52 amMy family loves pears and they’re probably my daughter’s favorite favorite fruit. And of course she loves pancakes, so this looks like the perfect breakfast for her. Thanks for sharing!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 12:00 pmHaha, yes! Pear pancakes all around then!
Audrey @ Gluten-Free Vegan Love says
January 7, 2015 at 11:51 amPear butter + pear pancakes?!? You’re talking my language! 😉 Pear butter is one of my absolute favorite things!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 11:59 amAny fruit butter is SO good!
Laura @ Mommy Run Fast says
January 7, 2015 at 11:01 amYum! We grew up with Bartlett pear trees- they are still my favorite!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 11:59 amI’m jealous! I’d totally dig a Bartlett tree!
Tatum | EATS From The Oil Patch Blog says
January 7, 2015 at 10:58 amWOW, those pancakes look like the perfect texture!! I will have to try this recipe. xo
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 12:01 pmThanks Tatum! They are SO yummy!
Hannah @ CleanEatingVeggieGirl says
January 7, 2015 at 10:54 amI never thought I was a pear lover until I made poached pears this past fall. I bet these pancakes would be amazing topped with them!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 11:58 amYes! I need to try poaching them! And in wine!
laura @ scribbles and sass says
January 7, 2015 at 10:53 amyum! i love pears. especially poached and eaten with blue cheese. now i’m drooling.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 11:58 amI’ve always wanted to poach pears!
Julianne @ What the Bride Wore says
January 7, 2015 at 9:34 amThese look amazingly fantastic! What a hearty and delicious food combo!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:16 amThanks Julianna!
Kerri Olkjer says
January 7, 2015 at 9:25 amThis is going to sound dumb, but I’ve never thought of doing cinnamon and pear together. LOL. Sounds amazing!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:16 amWHAT!!!! Well I’m glad you now know of this fabulous (very common) combo, haha!
Alyssa says
January 7, 2015 at 9:01 amPears have been a little forgotten in my life, I think I need to incorporate them back in! I think my favorite winter fruit would have to be grapefruit! I can’t get enough of them.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:15 amYES! Don’t neglect the wonderful pears! I’m not a big fan the grapefruit, haha! Too sour!
Linz @ Itz Linz says
January 7, 2015 at 8:55 amcinnamon pear = YUM!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:14 amYou got that right!
Jen says
January 7, 2015 at 8:54 amOh my, these look wonderful! Pancakes are my favorite breakfast food, so I must try these over the weekend!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:14 amMe too! Haha 😉 And yes, you totally should! XOXO
Michele @ paleorunningmomma says
January 7, 2015 at 8:53 amWe love pears of all kinds! Apples and pears are both staples in my house year round. These look really delicious 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:14 amThe two standard classic fruits! I can never get enough 🙂
Sam @ PancakeWarriors says
January 7, 2015 at 8:36 amyum!! I just love this recipe. I bet the buckwheat and pears are perfect together. I haven’t used the egg replacer you mentioned, do you think this will wiork woth chia or flax egg?? Can’t wait 🙂 thanks for sharing
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:13 amJust leave it out all together! The pear is the egg-replacer here!
lindsay says
January 7, 2015 at 8:27 amyou know i love pears! and this combo. It reminds me of dessert! I can never get the egg replacer to work well with me though. Which brand do you use?
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:13 amEner-G! It’s the only good one on the market (out of the very few to begin with). You don’t really need it here though since the pear puree works like any other good egg-sub. I just like the extra binding sometimes!
lindsay says
January 7, 2015 at 1:29 pmthat’s the one i tried. Hmmm.. will try it again or use chia egg
Susie @ SuzLyfe says
January 7, 2015 at 8:19 amForelle pears are some of my favorite fruits of all. I love the tiny size, for one, and the unique taste. But how good are the standard Harry and David D’Anjou??
I do, however, despise Asian Pears. Give me a big ol’ jicama instead, please and thank you!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 10:11 amAny Anjou is my favorite! It seriously is just so perfectly crafted, haha!
Asian pears are weird. It’s like an apple and a pear….strange texture!
Linda @ Veganosity says
January 7, 2015 at 8:12 amSo I have to ask – did your mom agree to take a walk on the wild side and try a different type of pear? 🙂
I love buckwheat pancakes, and I haven’t had them in years. Thanks for the reminder! The combination of pears and cinnamon sounds very inviting. I can’t wait to give this recipe a try.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
January 7, 2015 at 8:14 amHahahaha! NO, she still only buys the Bartlett 😛 She doesn’t know what she’s missing! Plus when she buys them for herself or my brother, no one east them, so I HAVE TO end up eating them! The pear struggle 😛

January 7, 2015 at 7:47 amOh that looks delicious! I love pears but do tend to buy Bartlett most often. I recently started buying red pears (don’t know the official name) just for some variety. Plus, they are just so pretty too!
