Pumpkin!!  I love pumpkin in both sweet and savory dishes.  If I see a recipe with Pumpkin in it chances are I'll give it a try.  A long time ago I read something that suggested putting plain Pumpkin Puree in pancakes to up the nutritional content.  I was so curious that I decided to give it a try.  It gives the pancakes a Pumpkiny flavor that I really like.  I don't add any sugar or spices to it so it's a very natural Pumpkin flavor.  You could add pie like flavors if you want to but I like them just plain and simple.  I suggest you give it a try using your favorite pancake mix.
  | 
| You will need Bisquick (or pancake mix of your choice..or make your own), Eggs, Pumpkin Puree, and Milk. | 
  | 
| Put your Bisquick, Milk, and Eggs into a medium sized bowl. | 
  | 
| Add in the lovely orange Pumpkin Puree.   | 
  | 
| Mix it all together but try not to over mix. | 
  | 
| Warm up your favorite griddle over medium heat. | 
  | 
| Measure out 1/4 cup of the batter per pancake and let them cook a couple minutes. | 
  | 
| These don't bubble up the same as regular pancakes so I watch for the bottom to look like it's starting to cook and a few bubbles to form on the top. | 
  | 
| When you flip they should be a lovely brown color. | 
  | 
| I stack them up as I cook and serve as I go. | 
  | 
| I like to top them with a bit of butter and a sprinkling of Sugar. | 
  | 
| Oh boy!  These are also great with maple syrup and Cinnamon/Sugar. | 
  | 
| My littlest enjoying her pancakes. | 
  | 
| My biggest getting her Pancake breakfast on. |

| Enjoy! |
