Pumpkin Pancakes

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup pumpkin purée
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• Cooking spray (for griddle)
• Maple syrup and butter ( for serving)

Instructions

1. 1

   Whisk dry: In a large bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together until there are no lumps.

2. 2

   Mix wet: In another bowl, combine pumpkin purée, maple syrup, milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix well.

3. 3

   Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. If the batter seems too thick, you can add a splash of milk to thin it out. Avoid overmixing to keep pancakes fluffy.

4. 4

   Heat skillet: Heat a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.

5. 5

   Cook pancakes: Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, about 2 more minutes.

6. 6

   Serve with butter and additional maple syrup on top.
