• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Cover with foil to keep moist and put in the oven until the pumpkin is tender, about 45 minutes.

Cook on a lightly buttered griddle or electric skillet at 375 degrees F until the pancakes form bubbles and the edges look dry. Flip the pancakes and cook for 1 or 2 more minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with warm pure maple syrup and butter.
