Pumpkin Pancakes with Cinnamon Syrup

Pumpkin Pancakes with Cinnamon Syrup ~ A perfect fall breakfast treat, these pancakes are tender and have just the right amount of spice!

Fall is upon us, and that means time for pumpkin recipes. My family is actually a little strange when it comes to pumpkin. They like pumpkin muffins, pumpkin cake, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin roll, etc. Just about everything pumpkin. Except pumpkin pie. So while the rest of the civilized world is dining on pumpkin pie, we are eating all things pumpkin. . . except for the pie.

I tried these pumpkin pancakes over the weekend and I think they would make a wonderful breakfast any time of the year. They are a bit sweeter than buttermilk pancakes and they have a nice spice to them. I really like them with chopped pecans. I just sprinkled them on the tops of the pancake batter on the griddle before I flipped them to the second side. (If everyone in your house wants the pecans, you could just stir them into the batter.)

The cinnamon syrup is one of our favorites. Don’t just save it for these pumpkin pancakes; it is also wonderful with regular pancakes, waffles, and french toast.
