Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup pumpkin puree (canned or fresh)

1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)

1 large egg

2 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free)

Maple syrup and whipped cream (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until combined.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, milk, egg, sugar, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.

      Mix Together: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if a few lumps remain.

        Cook Pancakes: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or oil. Pour a small amount of batter (about 2 tablespoons) onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.

          Create Sandwiches: Once pancakes are cooked, stack two pancakes together and spread your desired filling (e.g., cream cheese, nut butter, or any spread you like) between them to form a sandwich. Repeat this for the remaining pancakes.

            Serve: Drizzle with maple syrup, and top with whipped cream if desired. Enjoy your delicious Pumpkin Pancake Sandwich Bites warm!
