INGREDIENTS

Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

• 2 cups flour
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ginger
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon cloves
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 ¾ cup buttermilk room temperature. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by mixing together 1 ¾ cup of milk with 2 tablespoons white vinegar or lemon juice. Let mixture sit for 10 minutes before using
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla

Cinnamon Honey Butter

• ½ cup butter 8 tablespoons, at room temperature
• ¼ cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

INSTRUCTIONS

• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
• In a small bowl, whisk together pumpkin, buttermilk, butter, eggs, and vanilla.
• Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Some lumps are OK; do NOT overmix, that'll result in chewy pancakes. Let batter sit 5-10 minutes while you prepare the cinnamon honey butter!
• Add all cinnamon honey butter ingredients to a small bowl and use an electric mixer to beat until smooth and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and grease with butter or oil. Pour about ⅓ cup of pancake batter into the skillet and gently spread the batter to form a circle. Cook 2-3 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes or until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.
• Serve warm with cinnamon honey butter and maple syrup!
