Ingredients
2 cups flour
1⁄4 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice (+ 1 teaspoon)
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 1⁄2 cups milk (+1 tablespoon)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
2 eggs (separated)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1⁄2 cup sweetened condensed milk (7 ounces)
1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions

In a large bowl, sift together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice. Stir to incorporate.

In a medium bowl, whisk canned pumpkin, 11/2 cups milk, butter, egg yolks, and vinegar. Fold wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.

In a small bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold whites into batter, careful to stir as little as possible.

Grease and heat skillet over medium heat (300 F in an electric skillet). Pour 1/3 cup batter into skillet. Cook pancakes about 3 minutes per side. Try flipping the first pancake a few times to get a sense of the best cook time. Cook remaining pancakes.

To make syrup, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, and 1 tablespoon milk in a small bowl. Serve immediately.
