Pumpkin Spice Pancakes…*
… pumpkin pie stacked high
Pumpkin pie for breakfast? Count me in! These fall-inspired cakes warm your soul from the inside out and make you want to jump and shout. (Yes, that just happened—who knew I could rhyme?) With just a few household ingredients, a scoop of pumpkin, a hot griddle, maple syrup, and a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar, you too can enjoy these light and fluffy breakfast cakes. As my boyfriend would say, “it’s like eating a freshly baked pumpkin pie stacked high in pancake form.” I couldn’t agree more ;)
