Ingredients

Scale

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup whole milk (or almond milk)
2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, beat the egg and mix in the pumpkin puree, milk, and melted butter until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; avoid overmixing for fluffy pancakes.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.
Ladle about a quarter cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2–3 minutes), then flip and cook for another minute until golden brown.
Serve warm with maple syrup and your favorite toppings.
