Directions
Step
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
Step
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
Step
Pour 1/4 cup portions of the pancake batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Step
Once the pancakes are done, stack them on a plate.
Step
Serve your Pumpkin Spice Pancakes with a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, and a sprinkle of chopped nuts if desired.
Tips for this recipe
For extra convenience, you can use canned pumpkin puree, which is readily available in most grocery stores. Make sure it’s pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, for the best results.
