SPICED PUMPKIN PANCAKES

 

IT'S FALL!!!  Even though it is still a little warm in Texas, October means I can pull out the pumpkin candles and start making pumpkin-y things!

 

SPICED PUMPKIN PANCAKES

 

Maple-Pecan Syrup:

1 cup maple-flavored syrup

1 Tbsp butter or margarine

1/4 cup chopped pecans

Pancakes:

2 1/3 cups Bisquick Mix

1/3 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)

1 1/4 cups milk

1/4 cup vegetable oil

2 Tbsp sugar

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 eggs

In 1-quart saucepan, heat syrup and butter until butter is melted, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in pecans.

Heat griddle or skillet over medium heat or to 375°F.  Grease griddle with vegetable oil if necessary. In medium bowl, stir all pancake ingredients until well blended.  For each pancake, pour slightly less than 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle.

Cook until edges are dry. Turn; cook other sides until golden brown. Serve with syrup.
