Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup pumpkin purée
- 2 large eggs, yolks and whites separated
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for greasing the skillet
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
-
Preheat griddle or large non-stick skillet to medium heat.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, buttermilk, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and oil.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, and whisk to combine. The batter should stay slightly lumpy so be sure not to overmix.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter. Let rest for 10 minutes.
-
Butter or oil the griddle or baking. Pour out 1/2 cup of batter for each pancake and spread into a circle.
-
Cook each pancake until golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Serve warm with butter, nuts, and syrup, if desired. *
Notes
- I highly recommend serving with Whipped Pumpkin Butter and Easy Candied Pecans!
