The mix of spices like cinnamon & ginger and the pumpkin sweetness makes this quick pancake recipe the perfect fall breakfast.
We don't eat pancakes often at home, but it's something I usually have fun preparing on weekends, and I'm always on the hunt for new interesting flavor combinations.
Pumpkin Pancakes are very famous in US, but it's something we're familiar with in Italy, so I've never tried them until I moved to London. I recently tasted them in a small cafe' and I totally loved each bite. I thought it was about time to make them myself and share with you the recipe.
