Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup canned pumpkin puree

1/2 cup milk (or your choice of plant-based milk)

1/4 cup maple syrup (plus extra for serving)

1 large egg

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

Whipped cream (for topping)

Chopped pecans (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Whisk thoroughly until well combined, ensuring that there are no lumps.

    Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree, milk, maple syrup, egg, and melted butter. Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and evenly blended.

      Combine the Mixtures: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just mixed; it's okay if a few lumps remain—overmixing will lead to tougher pancakes.

        Cook the Pancakes: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of melted butter. For each mini pancake, pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to firm up and small bubbles pop on the surface. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until they are golden brown on both sides.

          Continue Cooking: Once cooked, transfer the pancakes to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter until all mini pancakes are made, yielding approximately 10-12 mini pancakes in total.

            Assemble the Stackers: Create stacks by placing 3-4 mini pancakes on top of each other on a serving plate. Drizzle the pancakes with maple syrup, add a generous dollop of whipped cream on the top, and sprinkle with chopped pecans for an added crunch, if desired.

              Serve Warm: Enjoy your mini pumpkin pancake stackers warm, accompanied by additional maple syrup on the side for a delightful dipping experience.
