Perfect Pumpkin Pancakes are the absolute best and so easy to make with everyday ingredients! Packed full of fall flavor with pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg!
I’ve been making these pumpkin pancakes for years! They’re a fall staple in our house, and we always look forward to them on a chilly weekend morning. While it isn’t quite feeling like autumn here yet, these pancakes have already made a couple of appearances at my kid’s request!
How to Make Pumpkin Pancakes:
- To start go ahead and pre-heat a large non-stick griddle. You can butter the griddle or spray with non-stick cooking spray if desired.
- Next, you will whisk together your dry ingredients. We have the usual suspects of flour, baking powder, and salt. But the great flavor comes from the cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
- Then, in a second bowl whisk together the pumpkin puree with the granulated and brown sugar, vanilla, melted butter, eggs, and milk.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients with a spatula until just combined. The batter will be a tad lumpy. Then allow the batter to sit for 5 minutes.
- I use a 1/3 cup measure to pour these pumpkin pancakes on the griddle. Use the bottom of the measuring cup to gently spread the pancake batter out. The pancakes will need to cook for about 4 minutes per side.
Enjoy!

Made this for breakfast this morning and they were some of the best pumpkin pancakes I have had! 10/10
These were AHMAZING. My daughter and bf loved them 😍
Delicious! I made a whipped butter with khalua to flavor it, then homemade whipped cream sweetened with vanilla and brown sugar. Top tier with these pancakes! This is my second time making it and my kids love it!
This is not for comments, but a question. How long will the leftover batter keep in the refrigerator? Thanks
I’d use it within 24 hours
I don’t like to say anything is perfect. This side of heaven. However, these are pretty close. If you’re using gas stove, you want to keep the heat on a really low setting because they will tend to burn. It’s like having a pancake with pumpkin pie all in one thank you so much.
Terrific! Made for the first time when I had guests spending the weekend. The pancakes were gobbled up. I made a second batch to freeze for quick, easy breakfasts. Those were just as good.
Delicious 🤤🤤🤤 omg the best
And homemade pancakes are the best
Simple delicious pancakes w fresh pumpkin
I followed it exactly but my turned out a little “heavy.” Used unbleached flour. Didn’t over-stir. They are however delicious.
They have a nice flavor and easy to make
Some of the best pancakes I’ve ever had! The most wonderful, bouncy texture. They are perfectly spiced and not too sweet. I’ve made a couple different variations (adding chocolate chips, adding candied pecans) and they always turn out lovely. A new family favourite recipe!
