Pumpkin spice pancakes are a delightful breakfast option, perfect for autumn or whenever you're craving that cozy pumpkin flavor. They're fluffy, aromatic, and filled with the warm spices that make pumpkin desserts so beloved. Here's a simple recipe for pumpkin spice pancakes that is sure to bring a touch of warmth to your mornings.
Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Stir to blend.
Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, pumpkin puree, oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Avoid over-mixing; a few lumps are fine.
Heat the Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of oil or butter to grease the surface.
Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve the Pancakes: Once cooked, remove the pancakes from the skillet and place them on a plate. Serve with your choice of toppings.
Enjoy your pumpkin spice pancakes! They're a comforting and aromatic way to start the day.
