Pumpkin Spice Latte Pancakes are the perfect autumnal breakfast, combining the flavors of a classic pumpkin spice latte with fluffy pancakes. These pancakes are infused with pumpkin puree, spices, and a hint of coffee, making them a cozy and delicious treat for a chilly morning.
Ingredients
Pancake Batter:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee powder (or espresso powder)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Serving:
- Maple syrup
- Whipped cream
- A sprinkle of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
Directions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, instant coffee, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- In another bowl, mix together the milk, pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; some small lumps are okay.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
- Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, and a sprinkle of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice.
