Pumpkin nutmeg pancakes: the perfect snack!

It's been quite a while since I posted a recipe. While I was looking through my own cookbook to find a pumpkin recipe, I thought... why not make one from scratch? I have a toddler who is constantly asking for something to eat. So, I have been very much into pancakes and cupcakes for the past year. That's why I decided to go with pumpkin pancakes for this year. And I have to say, they turned out pretty pretty good. At least my toddler approves and that's a big YES! Plus, my husband ate them very pleasantly although he is not a fan of the pumpkin.

This recipe is a recipe that is easy to make. The pumpkin flavor may be sublte to some. If so, add an extra 1/3 cup of pumpkin pulp to the mixture. For me, you can't have pumpkin pancakes without cinnamon and nutmeg. However, feel free to alter the recipe to your own taste. They go really well with honey and blueberries on top. Enjoy!

5. Pour 3 tablespoons of batter for each pancake onto the pan, slightly flattening the top with a spoon.

6. Bring the heat to a medium and cook for about 2 ½ minutes on the one side. When bubbles appear on the surface, flip and cook the other side for an additional minute.

7. Enjoy the pancakes hot and fluffy.
