In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir in pumpkin, buttermilk, slightly melted butter, egg yolks, and pumpkin spice.
Using a stand mixer or hand-held mixer, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold into pancake batter, just until mixed.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Spread a pat of butter all over the skillet. Pour pancake batter onto skillet and cook until lightly golden on each side and cooked in the middle.
Serve with butter, real maple syrup, and cinnamon sugar.
