Enjoy!

LOVE this – and so does monsieur le frog – I have just showed him – he prefers sweet to savoury, so suggested we could leave out the chilli, parmesan and rosemary and drizzle them with honey instead?
Pumpkins are not in full swing here yet, but I think that my veggie daughters will love this recipe as part of a Halloween supper when I go to see them in two weeks (and counting!)
Happy Sunday x
Of course, you can make sweet pancakes, they are pretty tasty too! But sweet is sweet, and most of the time I prefer to eat something savory for my breakfast! 🙂
Actually, we don’t celebrate Halloween, but I love how it does in other countries; here just funny things for children are sold in stores and parties in clubs are held (for adults of course), where you can wear whatever your imagination can create. 😀
Have a funny Halloween!
It is quite different here also, and I am going to write about that closer to the time xx
I’ve never had savory pancakes before, but I’ve actually been toying with an idea similar to this for a while. These sound so unique, and the photos are truly lovely!
Really? Than you definitely should make savory pancakes one day; who knows may be you will love them much more than sweet? 😀
Here is another recipe of savory buckwheat pancakes 🙂

And what about crepes, they are usually on a neutral side,and you can eat/serve them with both sweet and savory fillings, like smoked fish or ham.. Did you try them? Have a look links below with blini (similar to crepes)

Now you have so many options to choose from! 🙂 Have a lovely day!
Oh boy what wonderful looking pancakes. I would give anything to have them!
I’m sending you a huge stack virtually… 😀 I think the only way-to get all required and start cooking!
Oh wow- what a great idea! Looks divine 🙂
Thanks a lot! Have you made savory pancakes before?:)
Your pumpkin pancakes look so delicious that it is making me hungry! I love the fact that it is the savory kind. I don’t like to eat too much sweet stuff for breakfast. Happy weekend.
Me neither, I often have eggs or blini with savory filling, but the only exception is porridge :D. Have you seen my another savory pancake recipe? I prepared them with buckwheat flour and you can also serve them with any non-sweet side (but even sweet will be nice too). Have a look at this link :

Those pancakes look absolutely delicious and I like the fact that they are savory for a change. I’m a fan of Jamie Oliver too. There is something sexy about him:)
Oh yes! All his recipes always turn out good! What’s you fav breakfast in your family, Lily?
Are pancake one of the most versatile recipes? I am sure these with pumpkin must be amazing!
Absolutely agree with you, Margy! Just add a new spice or filling to pancakes – and you will get a new meal! Thanks for reading! 🙂
Wow – novel way to use pumpkin, love it – could eat these for dinner!
It’s a nice idea – make it for dinner! Actually, I also do love pancakes and can eat them anytime! 😀
I love savory pancakes and can eat them for any meal 😀 These pumpkin ones look so very delicious! Thank you for sharing Mila!
Thank you, Naina! Me either, I think I could eat them every day! 😀 How do you serve savory pancakes? Any fav sides/sauces?
Savory pumpkin pancakes for breakfast, I could certainly enjoy it, I will leave out the chili though.
Chilli is optional here, pancakes are still perfect without it! Thanks for commenting, Norma! Hope you will make it soon! 😉
They look splendid and so tempting. A very yummy breakfast! 🙂
Thanks! Have a great weekend! 🙂
I absolutely adore this whole concept! I over-purchased pumpkin puree and admittedly, do much prefer it prepared in a savory dish than sweet. You’ve just solved both problems in one delicious recipe. 🙂
Oh, I’m glad to hear it, Hannah! These pancakes are fluffy and very tasty, you will not regret! Happy cooking! 🙂
Thanks for stopped by!
These pancakes looks very delicious !!
They are! Hope you will it a chance! 😉 Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Freda! 🙂

I love the idea of your savory pancakes…what a nice change. I know I would enjoy them.
You can use any pumpkin/squash leftovers in this recipe, and I absolutely love it! Thanks for the visiting, Karen! 🙂
What a fab remix of normal pancakes! I could eat a plate of these right now – mmmmm.
What a sweet comment! I think, these pancakes could be eaten even for a dinner! 😀
Can you send me a stack too please Mila?! xo
Ahahaha so sweet of you! 😀 Already packing…
What a gorgeous stack of pancakes! And so savoury, I love it 🙂
Thanks a lot dear! May be we could make an exchange? I will send you a huge stack of these pancakes and you – a casserole of that beef ragu for me? 😀
I think that sounds absolutely perfect! 🙂 x
I’m totally wowed by the simple shift that makes these savory! I am so used to sweet pumpkin treats this time of year that this was nice and refreshing, while no less cozy! ❤
I agree with you! Pumpkins and apples are such a cozy and warm ingredients, especially enjoyable during cold and dull days! 🙂
Thanks for reading!
Absolutely fantastic idea! I have never had a savory pancake before but this I would like to try. Gorgeous photos, I love!
Thank you! Have you seen my another post with small buckwheat pancakes? I made them savory as well:

Have a nice day!
Pumpkin season is my favorite! We get to experiment so much with pumpkins. This is perfect for breakfast! I shall make it for my family 🙂
Experimenting is a good thing, I love that too. For example, I created and prepared these sweet pumpkin buns last year: 🙂

Thanks for reading, Mary!
We’re in pumpkin season here now and starting to see lots of food with pumpkin in a variety of dishes but I don’t think I’ve seen it in pancakes. What a wonderful way to start the day!
Yay! try it, they are really nice&tasty! So, what do you usually make with pumpkins, Diane?
The standard here is pumpkin pie but pumpkin muffins are probably the #2 pumpkin item. I tried a pumpkin soup recipe last year too that was delicious and will have to look that one up again.
Oh, yes! I love pumpkin/squash soups and cook them pretty often too, I just love any creamy soups! 😀
Your savoury pancakes look delicious, I love the idea of the sweetness of the pumpkin contrasting with the saltiness of the parmesan, perfect combination. Thanks for sharing 🙂
These are so interesting with the spices and Parmesan and sour cream added to them. They must have a delicious flavor. So beautiful, too!
I made pancakes with herbs and sausage and surprisingly they tasted really good. I am sure these pancakes are too. Great photos!
Amazing! I’ll definitely try them, they look fantastic!
