Pumpkin Pancakes

I used to be a big fan of French toast. That was my special breakfast request.  Coming home from college this was one of the things I wanted my mom to make me.


Funny how times change.  Now I am much more of a pancake lover.  Sure I probably would sit down to French toast but given the option I would order pancakes. 


Lately pancakes have come to be trend themselves.  Funfetti, brownie batter, pretty much any flavor you can think of I am sure you can find a pancake recipe out there.

Being fall and all pumpkin seemed to be the right choice for pancakes this week.  The recipe was super easy to throw together yesterday morning before work.  Mr. J wanted eggs instead.  He doesn't know what he missed.
