Description

Delicious and fluffy pumpkin pancakes perfect for breakfast or brunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1¾ cups milk
  • ½ cup solid-packed pumpkin
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (plus additional for griddle)
  • butter (optional)
  • maple syrup (optional)
  • fresh whipped cream (optional)
  • chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the griddle over medium heat.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together milk, pumpkin, egg, and vegetable oil.
  4. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Batter may be slightly lumpy.
  5. Lightly brush the griddle with oil. Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip carefully and cook the second side until golden brown.
  7. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, and nuts if desired.
