Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and nutmeg. Set aside.
    2 cups All-purpose flour, 2 tsp Baking powder, 1 tsp Baking soda, 1/2 tsp Salt, 2 tsp Ground cinnamon, 1 1/2 tsp Pumpkin pie spice, 1/4 tsp Ground nutmeg
  • Spread the can of pumpkin puree on a dinner plate. Use 8 paper towel sheets (2 at a time) and press into the pumpkin to absorb the excess moisture. Do this 4 times.
    15 oz Pumpkin puree can
  • In a large bowl, add brown sugar, egg, pumpkin puree, buttermilk, milk, vanilla, and melted butter. Stir with a whisk. Add in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. There will be a few lumps and this is normal.
    2 TBSP Brown sugar, 1 Large egg, 1 3/4 cup Buttermilk, 1/4 cup Milk, 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract, 2 TBSP Unsalted butter
  • Let the pumpkin batter sit for 10 minutes to allow for extra rise. Preheat a griddle to 350℉.
  • Melt one tablespoon of butter over the griddle. Use 1/3rd cup to place dollops of pancake batter on the griddle. Lightly spread it to a circle. For more fluffy pancakes, don't spread the batter that much. Heat until there are no more bubbles, and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip it and cook the other side until golden. Note: pumpkin pancakes need longer cook time than regular pancakes because of the pumpkin. The pancakes needs to be really golden brown.
    Unsalted butter
  • Serve with butter, whipped cream, and pancakes while hot.
