What Makes This Recipe Special
These pancakes are light and fluffy, making them a perfect treat for a cozy morning. Using pumpkin adds natural sweetness and a lovely autumn flavor without needing extra sugar. Plus, they are completely vegan, so everyone can enjoy them.
Step 1
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. In another bowl, mix the milk, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vanilla, oil, and water until everything is well combined. Make a little well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture, then gently stir until just combined—don’t overmix, a few lumps are okay.
Step 2
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Cook them until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges start to look set, usually around 3 to 5 minutes. Flip carefully and cook the other side until it’s golden brown, another 3 to 5 minutes. Keep going with the rest of the batter, and enjoy!
