- Electric griddle
- Cooling rack
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Kodiak Cakes pancake mix
- 3/4 cup milk regular or dairy-free
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder optional, for extra fluff
Optional add-ins:
- Chocolate chips
- Chopped pecans or walnuts
Instructions
Step 1: Make the Batter
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Kodiak pancake mix, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and baking powder if using.
- Add the milk, pumpkin puree, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir until just combined. The batter will be thicker than regular pancake batter, and that’s exactly what you want.
- Let the batter rest for 3 to 5 minutes. This helps hydrate the mix and improves texture.
Step 2: Heat the Pan
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
- Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Gently spread it slightly, since the batter is thick.
- Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook another 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 4: Serve Warm
- Serve immediately with butter, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.
