    Tips for the Perfect Pumpkin Pancakes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Don\u2019t skip the buttermilk: It adds tang and helps create those fluffy pockets. Rest the batter: Gives time for the flour to absorb moisture and makes fluffier pancakes. Control the heat: Medium heat is key. Too hot and they\u2019ll burn before cooking through. Make it gluten-free: Substitute with your favorite 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Storage and Reheating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Freezer: Layer with parchment and freeze in zip bags for up to 2 months. Reheat: Pop in the toaster, air fryer, or microwave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
