Nutmeg: ½ teaspoon
Ginger (ground): ¼ teaspoon
Salt: ¼ teaspoon

Pumpkin puree: ½ cup
Milk (any kind): ½ cup
Egg: 1 large
Maple syrup (or honey): 2 tablespoons

Instructions
1. 1. Whisk Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
2. 2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk the cottage cheese, pumpkin puree, milk, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
3. 3. Mix Batters: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. A few lumps are okay; do not overmix, as this makes your Pumpkin Cottage Cheese Pancakes tough.
4. 4. Heat Griddle: Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat.
5. 5. Cook Pancakes: Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
