Here is a list of ingredients you will need to create these delicious pumpkin pancakes. Feel free to make substitutions where necessary to suit your dietary preferences:
- 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar

- 2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil for a dairy-free option)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Follow these steps to make your own batch of pumpkin goodness. Each step is infused with tips and tricks I’ve learned over the years:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- In another bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make your pancakes dense.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown. Keep them warm in a low oven if necessary while you finish the rest.
