How to make pumpkin spice pancakes for fall
Heat a griddle to medium high heat (I use 350ºF) or heat a large skillet over medium high heat. I always use cast iron or stainless.
In a medium bowl, whisk together your flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar
In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, egg, and melted butter until all combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. It’s okay to have a flew lumps remaining. Do not over mix.
Lightly grease your skillet or griddle with butter or oil, if needed.
Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour out batter to make 3-4” pancakes. This helps them cook and flip more easily than larger pancakes.
Cook without flipping until bubbles form and then pop. This will probably take about 3-4 minutes, but times will vary.
Flip and took until the second side is golden brown. It should be 2-3 minutes on the second side. Again, times will vary.
Serve the pumpkin pancakes warm topped with your favorite toppings!
