How to Make Healthy Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs until light and frothy.
  2. Add 1 cup whole wheat flour, 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons maple syrup. Gently mix until just combined.
  3. Stir in 1 cup pumpkin puree and ½ cup buttermilk (or milk + 1 tbsp lemon juice/vinegar). Mix until batter is smooth but slightly lumpy.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. To keep pancakes warm and fluffy, place them on a baking sheet and keep them in a 250°F (120°C) oven until ready to serve. Avoid stacking pancakes directly on top of each other to maintain fluffiness.
