Pancake Batter

Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Mix the Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, milk, and the egg. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is dissolved.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Heat the Griddle

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, about another 2 minutes.

Topping Assembly

  1. 6

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the pancakes are cooking, toast the coconut flakes in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently until golden brown.

  2. 7

    Serve the Pancakes

    Stack the pancakes on a plate, spread a layer of cream cheese on top, add a generous dollop of whipped cream, and sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes.

  3. 8

    Finish with Powdered Sugar

    Dust with powdered sugar to taste before serving.
