Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 cup pureed pumpkin (canned or homemade)
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Butter or oil for cooking
- Pure maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°F. Place a baking sheet in the middle rack to keep pancakes warm as you cook them.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and brown sugar until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the pureed pumpkin, milk, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to the warm oven while you cook the remaining batter.
- Serve warm with pure maple syrup.
Notes
For a perfect first pancake, use a super nonstick skillet and skip the butter. Serve with sausages and eggs for a complete meal. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or toaster for best results.
