Ingredients
For the Pumpkin Pancakes:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup milk (or buttermilk)

1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil

Instructions
Cook the Bacon:
In a skillet or frying pan, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and let it drain on paper towels.
Make the Pancake Batter:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
In another bowl, combine the milk, pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Cook the Pancakes:
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve:
Serve the pancakes warm with crispy bacon on the side. You can also add maple syrup, whipped cream, or toasted pecans for extra flavor.
