Pumpkin-Spice Pancakes

The only way to guarantee my family eats a variety of foods every morning is to adhere to our weekly breakfast menu. Otherwise, my teenager would just eat cereal and milk every day because it’s easy. And since I’m a massive believer in making sure I don’t deprive my kids of any of the fun stuff, Wednesday is the most highly anticipated breakfast morning: Pancake Day!

I originally created this gluten-free spiced version for Thanksgiving, but I like serving these while it is still cold outside. The flour makes it a slightly heavier and more filling choice for chilly, winter mornings. The aroma and the flavors are divine and always remind me of the holidays. Make these on Hump Day.

Best part: your kitchen will smell like pumpkin pie all morning!
