Description

Indulge in the cozy flavors of fall with these Golden Pumpkin Pancakes for Two. Fluffy and infused with warm spices, these pancakes are perfect for a romantic breakfast or a lazy weekend brunch. Drizzled with maple syrup and topped with whipped cream, they promise to elevate your morning routine into a delightful experience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup milk (whole or low-fat)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, milk, brown sugar, and egg until smooth.
  3. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir gently until just combined.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Test readiness by sprinkling water on it; if it sizzles, it's ready.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2 minutes), then flip and cook until golden brown (about 1 additional minute).
  6. Keep cooked pancakes warm under foil while finishing the remaining batter.
  7. Serve stacked high with maple syrup or whipped cream.
