Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups pumpkin puree
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 unit large egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoons neutral oil or additional butter for greasing the griddle

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, buttermilk, large egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and thoroughly mixed.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Preheat a griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of neutral oil or butter.

Step 5

Once the griddle is hot, use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to pour the batter onto the griddle. Cook each griddle cake for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.

Step 6

Carefully flip each griddle cake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Adjust the heat as needed to avoid burning and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as necessary between batches.

Step 8

Serve the pumpkin griddle cakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
