Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch oven-safe skillet or cast-iron pan in the oven while it heats.
In a blender, combine eggs, milk, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract. Blend on medium speed until smooth and fully incorporated.
Add the flour, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and salt to the blender. Blend again until the batter is smooth, scraping down the sides if necessary.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven using heat-resistant gloves. Add the butter to the skillet and swirl it around until melted, ensuring the bottom and sides are evenly coated.
Immediately pour the pancake batter into the hot skillet. Return the skillet to the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown around the edges.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pancake cool for 1-2 minutes. It will deflate slightly as it cools, which is normal.
Optionally dust the top of the pancake with powdered sugar and serve warm with maple syrup.
