Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes

Fall and pumpkin go hand in hand.  Whether you are enjoying homemade pumpkin spice lattes, or these fluffy pumpkin pancakes, you can never really over indulge on pumpkin in my opinion.  These pumpkin pancakes are made with buttermilk, which helps keep them incredibly moist, and real pumpkin puree along with all the delicious seasonal pumpkin pie spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, and ginger.  Make up a batch of these delicious fluffy pumpkin pancakes this weekend.

This recipe definitely makes tall pancakes from the baking powder.  If you like a more flat pancake, you can reduce the baking powder by half, but I like to have fluffy, airy pancakes.

How to Make Homemade Pumpkin Pancakes:

Making homemade pancakes is incredibly easy.  You likely have everything you need on hand in your pantry.  Simply combine the wet ingredients like the pumpkin, eggs, buttermilk and vanilla in a bowl.  In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients of flour, baking powder and sugar.  Mix and wet and dry ingredients together and stir just to combine.  You don’t want to overmix, otherwise your pancakes will be too dense.

I always do a test pancake on the griddle to make sure the heat is perfect – cook for a few minutes on each side.

Optional add-in – I originally make these with pecans on the top, BUT in my 2nd batch, I added a 1/3 cup of chopped pecans and that is the way to go – if you like pecans, chop and add them to the mix when you combine the wet and dry ingredients.  They get slightly toasted while the pancakes are cooking and make for an amazing and delicious pancake!

Save some pecans for the topping and serve with real maple syrup.
