Directions
Stir the flour with the baking powder, pie spice and salt in a large bowl. Add the pumpkin purée, milk, egg whites, maple syrup and canola oil; stir until combined. Add in chocolate chips and lightly mix.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; brush with a little additional canola oil. In batches, spoon about 1/4 cup (50 mL) batter per pancake into the skillet.

Tips
For fluffy pancakes, don't over mix the batter.
Add extra fibre by sprinkling chopped toasted pecans onto the batter.
Leftover pancakes can be stored, in a ziptop bag between sheets of wax paper for up to 1 day in the refrigerator or 1 month in the freezer. Reheat in the toaster or a toaster oven.
