You see these beauties? Got them for $13! Aren't they gorgeous? They are great decorations, but the best thing is they are all good cooking pumpkins. Been told the bottom one, I can get 12 cups of pumpkin out of it!
What will I make with all that pumpkin? Let's see, pumpkin bread, muffins, scones, cake, pie, cookies, and the best of all? Pancakes! Don't get me wrong, I am a sucker for pumpkin pie. I even eat it for breakfast. Which makes me think of another favorite-Pumpkin (or pompuna-what we had in Bonaire) Souffle. I'll have to make that again soon!
So back to the pancakes. I recently found a recipe for Pumpkin Cinnamon Streusel Pancakes. They turned out so yummy! Pete ate 2 (always a good sign of a good pancake). I found this via Pinterest- this comes from Two Peas and Their Pod Blog.

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup milk
1/2 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:
1. First, make the cinnamon streusel. In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter. Mix together with your hands or a fork, until you have a crumbly mixture. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flours, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, egg, pumpkin, canola oil, and vanilla extract. Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and whisk until combined.
4. Heat a griddle or pan to medium low. Coat with cooking spray. Drop 1/3 cup of batter onto heated skillet. Add 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon streusel. Cook on the first side until bubbles begin to form, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip pancake over and cover very generously with cinnamon streusel. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Continue this process to make the rest of the pancakes.
5. Serve pancakes warm with maple syrup and butter.
