In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
In a medium bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, almond milk, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or coconut oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the skillet and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as additional maple syrup, butter, whipped cream, or chopped nuts.
