Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cup (224g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground cloves
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ¼ cup (55g) light brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsps granulated sugar, optional for slightly sweeter pancakes
  • 1 cup (245g) canned pumpkin purée
  • 1 ½ cups (350mL) buttermilk
  • 3 Tbsps butter, melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • Pure maple syrup, warmed

Instructions

  • Preheat a non-stick electric griddle to 375° (190°C) or a griddle on the stovetop over medium heat. In a medium-size bowl, mix together the brown sugar, (optional granulated sugar), pumpkin purée, buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and pure vanilla extract; set aside.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and nutmeg. Make a well in the center. Using a rubber spatula, pour in the mixed liquid ingredients. Whisk together dry and liquid ingredients until just combined. (It will be slightly lumpy). Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
  • Butter or spray the griddle with cooking spray. Using a ⅓ cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the griddle to form the circular pancakes. Cook until a few bubbles appear on the top of the pancake and the bottom is golden brown and set. Flip the pancake, then cook until golden brown.
  • Repeat until all of the batter is used. Serve with butter and warmed pure maple syrup.

Notes

  • TO KEEP PANCAKES WARM: Preheat oven to 200°F (93°C) and place a baking sheet inside the oven. Place the prepared pancakes on the baking sheet and loosely cover with foil to keep warm until serving.
