Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- One pinch of cloves
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (not packed)
Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup milk (room temperature)
- 1/4 cup butter (melted and cooled)
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 eggs (room temperature)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and brown sugar. Set aside.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted and cooled butter, pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix — stop when the flour disappears for the fluffiest pancakes.
- Prepare griddle: Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly butter the surface.
- Cook pancakes: For each pancake, pour about 1/3 cup batter onto the griddle and gently spread slightly. Cook for 2-4 minutes until bubbles form and the edges look set, then flip and cook another 2-4 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve: Serve pancakes warm topped with butter and your favorite pancake syrup or maple syrup. Enjoy immediately.
Notes

- To reheat, microwave pancakes for a few seconds, then serve with butter and syrup.
- For best texture, do not overmix the pancake batter to avoid tough pancakes.
- Pancakes can be made smaller for easier storage and reheating.
