Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe

Mmmm… Pumpkin Pancakes! I have to tell you these are some of the most decadent pancakes I have ever had. My kids were thinking these were more like dessert than breakfast.  They aren’t too sweet or anything, they are just plain delicious. You are going to love these pumpkin spice pancakes.

Do you want to know what’s even better? The recipe for pumpkin pancakes is super easy to make! I simply added a few pumpkin-y ingredients to our regular homemade pancake mix and walla! Delicious and easy pumpkin pancakes!

You can make this recipe whether you use a store bought pancake mix or make your own. If you are using a box mix, may I suggest my homemade pancake mix?

Before you shake your head and tell me you already have a favorite mix (I used to buy the expensive and tasty boxed biscuit/pancake/waffle mix), try this recipe. It makes perfect pancakes (and waffles) every time. It is the ONLY mix I use.

Another little tip I want to give you that makes pancake making a breeze is to use a griddle.

 I use a cast iron griddle like this one. It fits over two burners and lets me make several pancakes at once. I like it because it doesn’t take up any more room on my counter like an electric griddle will. Plus it stores easily in my pantry.

With the small army I feed every day, this griddle makes my life just a little bit easier. I also use a large baking scoop to pour my pancake batter.

This allows me to use just the right amount of batter every time for the perfect size pancakes for my kiddos.
