Ingredients
For the Pancakes:
- 1 1/2 Cups All-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp Baking powder
- 1/2 Tsp Baking soda
- 1/2 Tsp Salt
- 1 Tsp Ground cinnamon
- 1/2 Tsp Ground ginger
- 1/4 Tsp Ground nutmeg
- 1/4 Tsp Ground Cloves
- 1/4 Cup Brown sugar
- 1 Cup Pumpkin puree
- 1 Cup Milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 Tbsp Melted butter (or coconut oil)
- 1 Tsp Vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
- Maple syrup
- Whipped cream
- Chopped pecans or walnuts
- A sprinkle of cinnamon sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients:In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and brown sugar. Ensure all the spices are evenly distributed for a well-balanced flavor in every bite.
- Combine the Wet Ingredients:In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. The key is to ensure the pumpkin is fully incorporated to avoid any lumps in the batter.
- Mix the Batter:Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough pancakes. The batter should be thick but pourable.
- Cook the Pancakes:Heat a griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray. Pour ΒΌ cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, about 2 more minutes.
- Serve and Enjoy:Serve the pancakes warm, stacked high, and topped with your favorite garnishes like a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts. These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh off the griddle, but you can keep them warm in a low oven if serving a crowd.
