Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin purée
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
- Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the buttermilk, pumpkin purée, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
- Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined; do not overmix.
- Cook: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot surface and cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on top and the edges look set. Flip and cook another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve warm with maple syrup, butter, or chopped pecans if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute milk and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice for the buttermilk.
- These pancakes freeze well—just reheat in a toaster or skillet.
