Pumpkin Spice Pancakes


Today was our first snow day of the winter! Schools were closed, roads were icy- it was lovely! And in honor of our first snow day, I decided to make pumpkin pancakes (wouldn't you?)!

Pumpkin Spice Pancakes
Adapted from Joy the Baker

Ingredients

1 1/4 c flour
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
a pinch of ginger
a pinch of cloves
1 c milk (more if needed to thin the batter)
1/2 c pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
1 egg
2 tbsp butter, melted

Directions

Mix all the dry ingredients together. Mix the wet ingredients together. Combine the two mixtures together. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt some butter in there. Add the pancake mixture by 1/4 c measurements. Cook on one side until bubbles start to come up, then flip. You know when they're done when you touch the middle and it springs right back. Enjoy!
