Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In a second medium bowl, whisk together milk, pumpkin, brown sugar, and egg until smooth. Make a well in the center of the flour ingredients, add the wet, and stir gently until combined. Gently fold in melted butter.
  2. Heat a griddle or frying pan over medium high heat, greasing if desired (see note 4). Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
  3. When bubbles start to form on the first side, carefully flip and brown the second side. Repeat with remaining batter (you should have about 8 pancakes). Serve hot with butter and maple syrup.

Notes

  • Baking powder: This chemical leavener generates bubbles in the pancake batter to help make them light and fluffy. (Not baking soda.)
  • Milk: Cow’s milk or any milk alternative, such as cashew, almond, oat, or soy. From skim to whole, any fat level will do.
  • Pumpkin purée: Seek out canned pumpkin pureé (not pumpkin pie filling). Or, make your own Pumpkin Pureé from a fresh pumpkin.
  • Oiling the skillet: If you love crispy edges on your pancakes, you’ll want to lightly grease your skillet with oil or butter before adding the batter. If using a non-stick skillet, you can skip the fat and cook the flapjacks in a dry skillet for a smooth, brown surface.
  • Yield: This recipe makes about four servings, 2 (4-inch) Pumpkin Pancakes each. Feel free to multiply the recipe as desired; it doubles and triples beautifully.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
