1teaspoonvanilla extract
Instructions
Heat a small or medium sized skillet over medium-low heat.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, sourdough starter, pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup, butter and vanilla extract.
Add the dry ingredients to the bowl of wet ingredients. Use a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to stir the batter until combined. Do not over mix. The batter should be lumpy but no streaks of flour should remain.
Place a small pat of butter in the now preheated skillet.
Pour ⅓ cup of batter into the pan. Cook approximately 3-4 minutes per side. The edge of pancake will appear set and the surface will start to form bubbles when ready to flip.
Transfer the pancakes to a plate and serve immediately.
