Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup buttermilk

1 large egg

2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for cooking)

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

2 tablespoons maple syrup (plus extra for serving)

Optional toppings: chopped pecans, whipped cream, or additional maple syrup

Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter:

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until well combined.

      Mix Wet Ingredients:

        In a separate bowl, beat the buttermilk, pumpkin puree, egg, and melted butter until smooth.

          Combine:

            Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

              Cook the Pancakes:

                Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter to coat the surface. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes) and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.

                  Make the Cream Cheese Filling:

                    In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with maple syrup until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness to your preference.

                      Assemble the Sandwiches:

                        Take one pancake and spread a generous layer of the cream cheese filling on the flat side. Top with another pancake to form a sandwich. Repeat until all pancakes have been used.

                          Serve:

                            Cut each sandwich into halves or quarters for bite-sized pieces. Drizzle with additional maple syrup and sprinkle with chopped pecans or serve with whipped cream, if desired.

                              Enjoy!

                                Serve the Pumpkin Pancake Sandwich Bites warm for the best taste.
