Pumpkins are one of my favorite things. I love adding pumpkin to recipes. Why not start your day with pumpkin pancakes?
Pumpkin pancakes can easily put a
smile on your face
These are the perfect way to start a lazy day or to send the kids off to school with a smile.
Top them with fresh blueberries, frozen works well too. Drop some dark chocolate chips in each pancake for a special treat!
I’m sure it will put a smile on your face as it sure does for my guys!
This recipe is gluten-free and dairy-free.
Although these are perfect plain, you can add dark chocolate chips or fresh/frozen blueberries to the batter before cooking or add them in after dropping the batter onto the griddle.
They should cook up fluffy and golden brown.
Top with real maple syrup and cinnamon – Enjoy!
