Pumpkin Pancakes


Scale

Ingredients

  • 11/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • a pinch of ground ginger
  • a pinch of ground cloves
  • 1 cup whole or 2% milk
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted (plus more for cooking and serving)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • maple syrup and chopped pecans for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, pumpkin, egg, melted butter and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients over the flour mixture and whisk gently until completely combined. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Melt a half-tablespoon of butter in a small nonstick skillet on medium-low heat. Ladle 1/3-cup of the batter into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the edges are set and the bubbles around the edges are open and set. Flip and cook on the second side for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve immediately, with lots of maple syrup, chopped pecans and a pat of butter.
