Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the dry ingredients - all purpose flour, baking powder, salt, pumpkin pie spice mix, and sugar.
Next add in the wet ingredients - whole milk, beaten egg, melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix until everything is combined, you will have a thick pancake batter(if it's too thick add a splash of milk).
Heat a large cast iron skillet on medium heat with homemade ghee or vegetable oil. When the skillet is hot, add in ¼ cup of batter to the hot skillet. I usually can fit 2 - 3 pancakes in my skillet.
Cook the pancakes until little bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes 2 - 4 minutes, then flip. You can add another tablespoon or two of ghee to the skillet to get crispy edges. Cook for another 2 - 3 minutes, until they are golden brown.
Stack the pancakes on a plate with butter. Cook remaining pancakes.
Serve your Pumpkin Spice pancakes with butter, maple syrup and a side of scrambled eggs. Enjoy!
