Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk coconut milk or heavy cream
  • 3 Tablespoons butter melted, plus more for cooking the pancakes
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 Tablespoon maple syrup - plus more for topping the pancakes

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg.

  2. In a separate medium mixing bowl whisk together the pumpkin, buttermilk, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla and maple syrup until fully combined.
  3. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the flour mixture and stir just until combined. Let the batter sit and rest on the counter for 4-5 minutes.

  4. Preheat a non-stick griddle to 375 degrees F. (If you make these on the stovetop, use nonstick pans, and heat to medium/ medium-low heat.)

  5. Spread some butter onto the hot griddle then use a ⅓ cup measuring cup to pour the batter on the griddle into even sized pancakes that are at least i-inch apart.
  6. Cook until golden brown on bottom with tiny bubbles forming on the top of the pancakes then flip the pancakes and cook them evenly on the other side until golden.
  7. Repeat the process until all of the batter has been used. This recipe makes about 12 pancakes. Serve warm with butter and maple syrup
