Receta Pumpkin Pancakes- A Delicious Way to Start the Day!
My family loves having breakfast foods for dinner during the cooler months of the year, so earlier this week I decided to try making Pumpkin Pancakes. I had just enough pumpkin left over from making the Pumpkin Bread Pudding a few days earlier. I must say that these wonderful pancakes are delicious! They are not too sweet or too spicy, but flavored just right for a perfect Autumn breakfast, (or dinner!). Son Number 2 LOVED them, so I've made them twice already. This is the son that is reluctant to try new foods, so these pancakes surprisingly won him over! Actually, my whole family loved them, so this recipe is a deffinate keeper, as I'm sure I'll be making them often. The only trouble I had with these pancakes was trying to take a good picture before the butter melted! Here's the recipe.
- In a large bowl, add these ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour ( I subbed 1/4 cup whole wheat flour for the 1/4 white)
- 2 T. sugar
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp. ground ginger ( Martha calls for 1/2 tsp.)
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/8 tsp. nutmeg
- pinch of ground cloves
- In a separate bow, mix together:
- 1 cup milk
- 6 Tablespoons canned pumpkin
- 2 T. melted butter
- 1 egg
- Fold these ingredients into the flour mixture.
- In a skillet or griddle over medium heat, add oil or butter; pour about 1/4 cup batter for each
pancake. Cook about 3 minutes per side and serve hot with butter and syrup. Yields about 8-10 pancakes. These are awsome Pumkin Pancakes! I hope you try them; your family will love you even more. Have a great weekend, my friends!
