Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened (for maple butter)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (for maple butter)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and pumpkin puree until well combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. While the pancakes are cooking, prepare the maple butter: In a small bowl, cream together the softened butter and maple syrup until smooth.
  8. Serve the warm pancakes topped with a dollop of maple butter.

Notes

  • For extra fluffy pancakes, ensure your baking powder is fresh.
  • Adjust spices to your preference.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture.
