Gather Your Ingredients

Super Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe

1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1 ½ cups milk of choice, I used almond milk, but you could use oat milk or regular milk as well
1 egg
2 tablespoons oil of choice, I used canola oil
2 tablespoons vinegar, I used apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup brown sugar, packed
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon salt

Toppings

toasted pecans, whipped cream, maple syrup

Instructions How To Make Super Light & Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients of flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt using a whisk or fork to mix together well.
In a large bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, milk, egg, oil, vinegar, and vanilla and combine well.
Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin puree mixture, whisking or stirring together to combine. Let the batter rest for 5 to 10 minutes. You should start to see bubbles forming, which is the vinegar reacting to the baking soda.

Using the Griddle/Stove to Make Your Light and Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes

First to start making the pancakes, make sure the griddle is hot by setting it to 325° F. If you’re cooking on the stovetop, lightly grease your skillet with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Set the burner to medium heat and change it if needed to get a nice golden-brown pancake.
To make pancakes, use a ⅓ cup scoop to measure the batter and pour it onto the hot pan/griddle. Let it cook for 1 ½ to 2 minutes, or until one side is brown. Flip the pancake and cook the other side for 1 ½ to 2 minutes. The cooking time may be different depending on the pan you use. The pancake is done when it is golden-brown all over. If you’re not sure, cut one pancake in half to check if it’s cooked all the way through.
Serve pumpkin pie spice pancakes with butter and warm maple syrup. Add some toasted pecans if you love the idea of some nutty crunchiness! It goes so well with pumpkin pancakes! You can also top with some whipped cream of course!

How to Store Leftover Super Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes

Fridge: Pancakes will keep fine in the fridge for a week or so by placing them in a ziplock bag or airtight container.

Freezing Pancakes

If you have a large amount of leftover pancakes, you can freeze them easily in the freezer. Just make sure your pancakes are not still warm and wet from the condensation, so they don’t stick together when you freeze them.
