Pumpkin Pancakes

Tis the season for something pumpkin. I love pancakes and I love anything with pumpkin in it so it you put them together I basically believe that you have created heaven. Here is a recipe for the most amazing pancakes and I will give you different options for making them. 

Pumpkin Pancakes

2 cups all-purpose flour (or 1 cup wheat 1 cup white)

1/4 cup brown sugar (or brown sugar splenda)

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 1/4  tsp ground allspice or clove

1 Tbsp ground cinnamon

1/2 to 3/4 tsp ginger

dash nutmeg

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla

1 2/3 cup milk (I like to use skim)

1 cup pumpkin puree

1 egg and 1 egg white

2 Tbsp vegetable oil (or 2 Tbsp apple sauce)

2 Tbsp white vinegar

Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Mix all the wet ingredients in a blender. Add the wet to the dry and mix just until combined. Let sit for 5 minutes. Use a 1/4 a cup to measure out the pancakes spreading them slightly. Cook as usual. They are thick and fluffy and taste really good with syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream or sweetened cream cheese just to name a few.
