Be sure to cook these long enough -- they seem to take slightly longer than regular pancakes, so be patient! When they are done, however, they will be tender, moist, and deliciously fragrant!

Serve with hot maple syrup, brown sugar syrup, butter, or just enjoy plain! :)

Additional Notes: 

I'm sure these would be delicious made with all-purpose flour, if you don't have or want to use whole wheat. :)

We loved these pancakes! We like them plain (hot and fresh!) or with syrup... and any leftovers make a handy snack. :) My rating: 10/10

Nice fall recipe

We made these pancakes for breakfast! I used spelt flour, and they turned out good. They do take a lot longer to cook, and still stay more dense than my regular pancake recipe. However they were very tasty!

A Delicious Way to Use Pumpkin

These are simple to make and very delicious. They do take a bit longer on the griddle, but they are yummy and a healthy. :) I also use my whole wheat bread flour and they turned out great.

The Best

These pancakes are so flavorful! My 6 year old said they are her favorite, and I'll have to agree. We had these with scrambled eggs and sausage for dinner, which was such a treat on this fall day. Also, I just had regular whole wheat flour and they turned out great.

Wonderful

These were delicious! I used all purpose flour and made your recipe for brown sugar syrup (the non-corn syrup version). Next time I will double the recipe and use a whole can of pumpkin.

Loved Them!

Tammy, they were wonderful. Fluffy and light with a nice pumpkin flavor. I can't wait until breakfast tomorrow! They did take a bit more time on the griddle, as you said, but they were worth the wait. Thanks for a great recipe!
