Ingredients

• 3 eggs
• 0.75 cups whole milk
• 0.5 cups pure pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0 powdered sugar (optional, for topping)
• 0 maple syrup (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch oven-safe skillet or cast-iron pan in the oven while it heats.

Step 2

In a blender, combine eggs, milk, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract. Blend on medium speed until smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 3

Add the flour, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and salt to the blender. Blend again until the batter is smooth, scraping down the sides if necessary.

Step 4

Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven using heat-resistant gloves. Add the butter to the skillet and swirl it around until melted, ensuring the bottom and sides are evenly coated.

Step 5

Immediately pour the pancake batter into the hot skillet. Return the skillet to the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown around the edges.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pancake cool for 1-2 minutes. It will deflate slightly as it cools, which is normal.

Step 7

Optionally dust the top of the pancake with powdered sugar and serve warm with maple syrup.
