Pumpkin Pancakes


Well it is for sure fall here now. All the leaves are falling, pumpkins are on everyone's doorsteps, and apple cider is in the stores. This morning Little Man and I decided to make some pumpkin pancakes and were they delicious. Here is the recipe we followed: 
Pumpkin Pancakes

Ingredients:
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup milk
  • 6 tablespoons pumpkin puree
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 egg
Directions:
  1. Stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, nutmeg and cloves in a medium bowl.
  2. Whisk together the milk, pumpkin, butter and egg in a separate bowl. Fold this mixture into the dry ingredients.
  3. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup batter for each pancake and cook approximately 3 minutes per side.
  5. Serve with butter and maple syrup.
Then we put the batter in our new fun pancake creator and made some pancakes. 

Little Man ate a good amount of the pancakes (which is a huge accomplishment for him. He doesn't eat much!)
