Who says pumpkin spice is only for October?! We will be eating pumpkin pancakes year-round with all the pumpkin puree I have sitting in my freezer from this Summer’s garden. These are perfectly moist and delicious. My husband says these are guest-worthy pancakes to feed our company. I can’t argue with that. Topped with pecans and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, these are so satisfying! Enjoy!
