Pumpkin Pancakes

Pumpkin Pancakes combine pumpkin puree with warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, creating a softly textured, spiced batter. Whipping egg whites lends a light, fluffy texture. These pancakes cook on a hot griddle until bubbles form before flipping. They can be served warm with syrup and are suitable for freezing and reheating, making them convenient for make-ahead breakfast or brunch.

Description

Pumpkin Pancakes blend basic pancake ingredients with canned pumpkin puree and a spice mix including cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves for autumnal flavor. The batter incorporates whipped egg whites, folded in carefully to maintain fluffiness, resulting in a tender and airy pancake. Cooking on a hot griddle ensures they don’t stick, and cooking until bubbles form signals readiness to flip. Serving them warm with syrup brings out the sweet spices and pumpkin taste.

These pancakes serve well at breakfast or brunch, offering seasonal appeal with pumpkin flavor. Their soft, fluffy texture contrasts with the slight density of the pumpkin and spices.

They freeze well when laid separately until frozen, then stored together, allowing reheating in a microwave, oven, or toaster with varying crispness. This flexibility supports preparing in advance and enjoying later without loss of texture.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp cloves
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/3 c. milk
  • 3/4 c. pumpkin puree canned
  • 4 large egg separated
  • 1/4 c. butter Melted
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your griddle or frying pan.
  2. Beat your egg whites in a stand mixer until soft peaks form.
  3. While your egg whites are mixing combine all the dry ingredients together. Whisk to combine.
  4. Combine all your wet ingredients together MINUS the egg whites. Stir until mostly combined. Don’t overwork this. You want a few lumps.
  5. Add in your dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Fold eggs into the batter.
  6. Pour 1/4 c. batter onto greased griddle or frying pan. Make sure the surface is hot before doing this or the pancakes become stuck to the pan. When bubbles form in the batter flip. Serve warm with syrup.

Notes

  • Freeze pancakes individually on a sheet pan before storing together to prevent sticking.
  • Reheat in the microwave for 20 seconds per pancake, adding 20 seconds per extra pancake.
  • Oven reheating at 350°F for 10 minutes retains softness; toasting produces a crisper exterior.
