Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Pumpkin Pancakes.
Step 1
In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together whole wheat flour, canned pumpkin, egg, white sugar, salt, and pumpkin pie spice until the mixture is thick and chunky.
Step 2
Introduce the baking powder and stir until it’s evenly incorporated.
Step 3
Gradually add 1/4 cup of milk while stirring, mixing until the liquid is fully absorbed.
Step 4
If the batter feels too thick, gently add more milk until it reaches a smooth consistency that still holds its shape.
Step 5
If you’re a fan of nuts, fold in the pecan pieces for an extra crunch.
Step 6
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat, then scoop 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet.
Step 7
Cook until the edges look dry, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 8
Flip the pancakes and let them cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until they are firm and golden brown.
Step 9
As you transfer the pancakes to a plate, add a pat of butter on top of each one, allowing it to melt into the warm pancakes.
Step 10
For a delightful finishing touch, dust them with confectioners' sugar before serving.
Step 11
Enjoy these delicious pumpkin pancakes as a cozy breakfast treat that captures the essence of fall in every bite.
