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
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, milk, brown sugar, and egg until smooth.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir gently until just combined.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Test readiness by sprinkling water on it; if it sizzles, it's ready.
- 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).
- Keep cooked pancakes warm under foil while finishing the remaining batter.
- Serve stacked high with maple syrup or whipped cream.
