Cooking Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and brown sugar until evenly blended.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree, milk, large egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract and blend until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined.
  4. Fold in the mini chocolate chips into the batter until they are evenly distributed.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or melted butter.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the preheated skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes until edges look set.
  7. Gently flip each pancake and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the other side is golden brown.
  8. Continue pouring and cooking the remaining batter, adjusting heat as necessary.
  9. Serve warm topped with maple syrup, whipped cream, or your favorite toppings.
