Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
- 3/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter
- Maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.
- Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined; lumps are okay.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat; test by adding a drop of water—if it sizzles, it’s ready.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve warm with maple syrup and your choice of toppings.
