  • Make the cream topping. Place all the ingredients in a bowl and whip up using a cake mixer whisk to obtain stiff peaks.

Recipe notes and tips

  • Instead of using a whisk, I like to use a cake mixer or a blender and blend up the liquids first.
  • Allow the pancakes to cook on one side until the top starts forming bubbles.
  • Do not press on the pancakes or else you will lose the fluff.
  • If you don’t have pancake spice you can use a mix of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ground ginger and ground cloves.
  •  I used semi-sweet in this recipe, but dark chocolate, white chocolate, or cinnamon chips would also be super tasty!
  • You can omit the chocolate chips, these Pumpkin Spice Pancakes still taste great.
  • Let the batter rest covered with a kitchen towel for about 5 minutes. It helps get the pancakes really fluffy.
  • Make sure to use pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling.
  • Be sure your griddle/pan is very hot before adding the pancake batter.

FAQ’s

How to serve these Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

Serve this pancakes hot. I love serving them with pancake syrup. You can use maple syrup as well if you like. My kids love having theirs with chocolate syrup. To me that’s a little too sweet. But kids love the sweetness so they have no problem with that. 

I also like whipping up a some cream cheese whip topping to top these delicious pancakes with.

I also sprinkle some pumpkin spice on top of the whip cream after topping the pancakes with it. The syrup can go before of after adding the whip cream. You can also throw in some crushed candied pecans if you are a fan of adding nuts to your pumpkin pancakes.

Can I freeze Pumpkin Spice Pancakes?

Pumpkin Spice Pancakes freeze great and are perfect to whip out at a moments notice, for a treat!

To stop the pancakes from sticking together, it is important to briefly freeze them individually for 30 minutes. Once the pancakes have frozen, you can place them together in a large resealable plastic bag. The pancakes will keep in a freezer for up to 3 months.

To reheat, you can microwave the pancake for 60 seconds then finish in the toaster for another minute to crisp up the edges.

Do I have to use canned pumpkin puree?

No, if you have the time and inclination to roast and puree a pumpkin, by all means. I will say though that canned pumpkin gives you more consistent results and is less watery then fresh pumpkin.
