  1. Blend the pumpkin pieces in a blender until smooth, ensuring there are no large chunks remaining.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the pumpkin and sugar, then cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pumpkin softens and the mixture thickens slightly.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pumpkin mixture cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk the cinnamon, vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, eggs, and milk together until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the cooled pumpkin mixture to the bowl and mix until incorporated.
  6. Sift the flour and baking powder into the bowl, then gently fold them into the wet mixture using a spatula or whisk until a smooth batter forms.
  7. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of coconut oil.
  8. Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan and spread it gently to form a pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles form and the edges turn golden brown.
  9. Flip the pancake and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes until golden.
  10. Transfer the pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
  11. Serve the pancakes warm with honey, nuts, or cream cheese.
