Servings: 16 pancakes
Calories: 110kcal

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground allspice
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ¾ cup pure pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Melt the butter and set it aside to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and cloves.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, milk, maple syrup and vanilla. Whisk until well combined. Whisk in the melted butter.
  • Heat an electric griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease the griddle or skillet with cooking spray.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until just combined. Try not to over-mix the batter. A few small lumps may remain in the batter but you shouldn't see large clumps or streaks of flour.
  • Scoop about 3 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle. Let the pancakes cook on the first side until bubbles form and the pancake bottoms begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook on the second side until golden and cooked through, about 2 minutes. Serve pancakes with maple syrup, if desired.

Notes

  • You can also make this recipe with 2 cups of all-purpose flour or 2 cups of white whole wheat flour instead of 1 cup of each. 
  • You can use 2 teaspoons of Pumpkin Pie Spice instead of the cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and cloves.
  • To make pumpkin chocolate chip pancakes, stir up to 1 cup of dark chocolate chips, semi sweet chocolate chips or mini chocolate chips (you can use less if using mini chips) into the batter.
  • Leftover pancakes freeze well, wrapped airtight, for up to 3 months. Thaw and warm before serving. You can thaw pancakes in the microwave on low power, at room temperature, or overnight in the refrigerator.
