I am in LOVE with all things Fall. I love fall clothes, decor, weather and most importantly: the food!!! I truly could eat pumpkin-everything all the time and these healthy pumpkin pancakes are no exception!
Being from Florida, where it does not even resemble Fall until October, I have always had a hard time “starting” fall before then so, I relish in the ability to start early these days!
Now that we live in Georgia we can start celebrating the season even earlier (like September!!) So, I have pumpkin coffee, pumpkin smoothies (recipe coming soon!), pumpkin pasta, pumpkin muffins, well you get the point! ; ) The irony is I do not like pumpkin pie…go figure (but it’s Kim’s favorite)!!!
So, when making pancakes this weekend, I did not even hesitate to make them pumpkin pancakes! This super simple recipe is so easy to make and tastes delicious! All three of my kids (8,6,2) ate them quicker than I could even get them on their plates. Trust me, it was hard to even get a picture for this one! LOL
So, gather your ingredients, put on some fun music, maybe even have a morning fire and enjoy this wonderful circle of heaven!
