Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or freshly cooked)

1 cup buttermilk (or substitute with regular milk + 1 tablespoon vinegar)

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted butter

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Maple syrup, for drizzling

Optional: whipped cream, chopped pecans, or chocolate chips for garnish

Instructions
 

Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly whisk together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until the mixture is uniform. Create a small well in the center of the dry ingredients, which will help when adding the wet ingredients.

    Prepare the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, add the pumpkin puree, buttermilk, eggs, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract. Use a whisk to blend these ingredients together until they are completely smooth and well incorporated.

      Mix the Two Mixtures: Carefully pour the wet mixture into the well you created in the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently mix until just combined. It's important not to overmix; a slightly lumpy batter will produce wonderfully fluffy pancakes.

        Preheat the Cooking Surface: Warm a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with a small amount of vegetable oil or non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

          Cook the Pancakes: For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Allow the pancakes to cook undisturbed until bubbles form on the surface, approximately 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip each pancake and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown and cooked through.

            Serve and Enjoy: Plate the pancakes while they are still warm and drizzle generously with maple syrup. For a delightful touch, add a dollop of whipped cream, a scattering of chopped pecans, or a sprinkle of chocolate chips on top if desired.
