Nani's Favorite Pumpkin Pancakes
These fluffy pumpkin pancakes are the perfect way to welcome a crisp autumn morning.
recipesbynani.comThere is something so comforting about the smell of pumpkin spice filling the kitchen. These pancakes are soft, moist, and loaded with all those warm flavors we love when the leaves start to change color.
My grandkids always ask for a double batch whenever we have a slow weekend morning. A quick tip is to make sure your pan is heated properly before you start so you get that lovely golden brown color every single time.
