These make a special breakfast on cool fall mornings. My boys loved to help me cook a batch up for a 'breakfast for supper' night around Halloween. Use any and all decorations you like to make jack-o-lantern faces on the pancakes. Try broken candy bar pieces, banana slices, raisins, crasins, or chopped nuts. Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1 cup quick cooking oats |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup milk |
1 egg, beaten |
3/4 cup canned pumpkin |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Stir together flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate large bowl, lightly beat together the milk, egg, pumpkin, and oil. Stir flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture, blending just until moistened. 2. Heat a lightly greased griddle over medium high heat. 3. Pour batter, 1/3 cup at a time, onto the prepared griddle. Make a jack-o-lantern face in each pancake with the chocolate chips. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 5 minutes per side. |
