Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus extra for cooking)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (or regular chocolate chips)

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until well mixed.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this will make the pancakes dense.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter to grease the surface.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep warm while you cook the remaining pancakes.
  • Serve with maple syrup, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
