Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup milk

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar
- In another bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
- Using a cookie scoop or small ladle, pour small amounts of batter onto the skillet to form small, 3–4-inch diameter pancakes.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the pumpkin pancakes warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts for added deliciousness.
- Enjoy these mini pumpkin pancakes as a delightful fall breakfast treat!
Notes
-
- Don’t overmix the batter. I know I already said it, but it’s the number one secret to fluffy pancakes! Stir just until the dry ingredients disappear.
- Watch your heat. Pumpkin pancake batter is a little thicker than classic pancakes, so they need a bit more time to cook through. Medium or even medium-low heat is your friend here… too hot and they’ll brown before the middle is done.
- Wait for the right moment to flip. When the edges look set and you see little bubbles forming, it’s time!
- Keep them warm. Pop finished pancakes on a baking sheet in a 200°F oven while you cook the rest so everybody eats warm pancakes at the same time.
- Make a double batch! These freeze beautifully (more on that below), and trust me… leftover pancakes on a busy weekday morning feel like a gift.
