Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• Whipped cream, for serving
• Additional cinnamon, for garnish

How to Make Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
2. In another bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, egg, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Transfer the pancakes to a plate and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining batter.
8. Serve warm topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure your baking powder is fresh for maximum fluffiness.
• Don’t overmix the batter; this helps keep the pancakes light and airy.
• Adjust the heat as needed; if pancakes are browning too quickly, lower the temperature.
• For extra flavor, add chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter.

Easy Variations

• Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Pancakes: Fold in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips for a sweet twist.
• Nutty Pumpkin Pancakes: Add 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
• Vegan Version: Substitute the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tablespoons water) and use plant-based milk and butter.

What to Serve With It

• Maple syrup for drizzling over the top.
• Fresh fruit, such as sliced bananas or berries, for a refreshing contrast.
• Bacon or sausage for a savory addition to your breakfast spread.
• A side of yogurt for a creamy complement.
