Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup pumpkin puree

1 tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup buttermilk (or milk with 1 tablespoon vinegar added)

1 large egg

2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for greasing)

Maple syrup (for serving)

Whipped cream (optional topping)

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until well combined.

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

      Combine Both Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.

        Prepare the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with melted butter.

          Cook the Pancake Sticks: Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and spread it into a rectangle shape (about 3 inches by 6 inches). Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set.

            Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as necessary.

              Slice into Sticks: Once all pancake rectangles are cooked, let them cool slightly. Then, cut each pancake into strips (about 1 inch wide).

                Serve: Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup and a dollop of whipped cream if desired. Enjoy your delicious pumpkin pancake sticks!
