Step 1
Shred the 2 cups pumpkin and 1 medium onion using a box grater. Thinly slice the 3 green onions.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the shredded pumpkin, onion, green onions, 2 eggs, 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup water, and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir until just mixed; the batter should be thick and lumpy.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake into the pan, flattening slightly with a spatula.
Step 4
Cook 3-4 pancakes at a time, without crowding, until the bottoms are golden and crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 5
Flip and cook the other side until golden and cooked through, another 3-4 minutes. Repeat with remaining oil and batter.
Step 6
Serve hot, with soy sauce or a dipping sauce if desired.
