Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup nonfat Greek Yogurt (I like Fage 0%)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened milk of choice (almond or oat milk recommended)

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice until well combined to ensure even distribution of leavening and spices.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, pumpkin puree, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and fully incorporated.
  3. Make the Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl and whisk gently until you achieve a smooth pancake batter with no lumps.
  4. Preheat Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook Pancakes: Pour approximately 2 tablespoons of batter onto the heated skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip carefully.
  6. Finish Cooking: Cook the flipped pancake for another 2-3 minutes until both sides are golden brown and the pancake is cooked through.
  7. Serve: Remove pancakes from skillet and repeat the process with the remaining batter. Serve warm topped with nuts, chocolate chips, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick skillet or griddle to prevent pancakes from sticking.
  • Adjust the milk quantity slightly if the batter is too thick or too thin for pouring.
  • You can substitute pumpkin puree with applesauce for a different flavor.
  • For a dairy-free option, ensure the Greek yogurt is plant-based and use dairy-free milk.
  • Serve immediately for best texture; pancakes can be kept warm in a low oven (around 200°F) while finishing the batch.
