Breakfast/ Fall Flavors

Pumpkin Pancakes

There’s nothing like fluffy, homemade pumpkin pancakes on a crisp Fall morning. I start making these pancakes for my family every September and it’s one of their favs. Waking up to the smell of nutmeg and cinnamon baking is one of best things in life. Serve these with buttermilk syrup and you have one super scrumptious breakfast!
