Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips plus more, to taste, for serving
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup canned pumpkin purée
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted, plus more, to taste, cold and sliced
- 1/4 cup maple syrup for serving
Directions
- In a large bowl, add the flour, 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips, the brown sugar, baking powder, the baking soda, the salt, and the cinnamon and stir to combine.
- In a large glass measuring cup or a second large bowl, add the buttermilk, the pumpkin purée, the eggs, and 1/4 cup of the melted butter and whisk to combine.
- Pour the pumpkin mixture into the flour mixture and use a rubber spatula to stir until it is just moist.
- Use the extra cold butter to lightly grease a griddle or nonstick skillet.
- Working in batches, ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot griddle and cook the pancake until bubbles appear on top and the bottom is golden-brown, about 2 minutes.
- Flip the pancake and cook until the reverse side is golden-brown, about 1-2 minutes. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, using more of the extra butter to grease the griddle, as needed.
- Serve the pancakes sprinkled with the extra chocolate chips and drizzled with the maple syrup.
