Ingredients
  

  • 1.0 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup pumpkin puree
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 1.0 large egg
  • 2.0 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1.0 tablespoon sugar
  • 1.0 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1.0 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 0.25 teaspoon allspice
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 2.0 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1.0 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Combine Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. The batter may be slightly lumpy, which is fine—do not overmix.
  • Heat the Skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil or cooking spray.
  • Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 0.25 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes until tiny bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  • Crumble Them: Once pancakes are fully cooked, stack them on a plate and use a fork to crumble them into bite-sized pieces.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Serve the pumpkin pancake crumbles warm, topped with maple syrup, whipped cream, and your choice of pecans or chocolate chips for an extra decadent treat.

Notes

Optional toppings include maple syrup, whipped cream, pecans, or chocolate chips.
