  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 8 pancakes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup melted unsalted butter or oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a large bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine pumpkin puree, buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined, with a few lumps remaining.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Serve warm topped with maple syrup, whipped cream, or toppings of your choice.

Notes

  • Use canned pumpkin puree for consistency and convenience.
  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain fluffiness.
  • Keep the heat at medium to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
  • Add chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra flavor.
