{ Pumpkin Pancakes }

Imagine waking up to the delicious fall smell of these breakfast boys cooking on the griddle. Mmmm, yes please! Cinnamon, brown sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin add that delicious autumn flavouring to your classic morning pancake stack. Serve ’em up farm-fresh style using squash or pumpkin one of these mornings with the simple recipe below!

If you’re like me, you have an ongoing stock of pumpkin or squash purée in your refrigerator ready for all your fall baking and cooking recipes (like this one!). If not and you’ve still got that fella sitting on the counter waiting to be used– well here’s our simple tutorial for making Easy Pumpkin Purée.

Thank you Jessica Musslewhite for creating this delicious fall recipe for our farm. (See her blog for more food inspiration.) And we hope you all continue to enjoy all that delicious garden bounty!
