pumpkin pancakes!

This is the first time I have posted as well! We tried this recipe out of the Taste of Home magazine and I thought it was tasty! It's different from the traditional taste, especially with the apple cider syrup, but it's worth the try! We liked it.

Hot Cider Syrup:

3/4 cup apple cider or juice

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup corn syrup

2 TBLS butter

1/2 tsp lemon juice

1/8 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp nutmeg

Pancakes:

1 cup flour

1 TBLS sugar

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cinnamon

2 eggs

1 cup milk

1/2 cup pumpkin

2 TBLS oil

For syrup, combine everything, bring to boil, reduce heat, simmer uncovered for 25 minutes. Let stand for 30 minutes before serving to help thicken.

For pancakes: combine the dry ingredients in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, pumpkin and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just unitl moistened. In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, fold into batter.
