Pumpkin Pancakes

This is a nice alternative to classic buttermilk pancakes, and easy to throw together in the morning. I doubled it, and Jamie and I each had 3 (Gisèle had 4!) and had 14 or so leftover. So I would say that 1 recipe makes 12 pancakes. Sorry - no picture!

Pumpkin Pancakes (from The Way The Cookie Crumbles)

1 cup flour
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 egg
2 Tbsp butter, melted & cooled
1/2 cup pureed pumpkin
1 cup buttermilk

-In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices.
-In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the egg, then add the butter, pumpkin, and buttermilk.
-Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk gently until the batter is mostly mixed, but still contains small lumps. Let the batter rest about 5 minutes.
-Use a 1/4 cup measure to measure out the batter onto a hot griddle. When cooked, serve with butter & maple syrup.
