Since I do not own an electric griddle, we use a cast iron griddle on the BBQ a lot. Here's my sweet hubby in the freezing cold fixin' up some pancakes. I do realize that it looks nice and toasty a) because it is sunny and b) because my honey is wearing short sleeves. But I assure you, he was a brave and fearless man, facing the frigid elements for the love of his family and all things holy (such as pumpkin pancakes).
Pumpkin Pancakes
2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp brown sugar 1 1/2 cups mild
2 tsp baking powder 1 cup pumpkin puree
1 tsp baking soda 1 egg
1 tsp ground allspice 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp cinnamon 2 Tbsp vinegar
1/2 tsp ground ginger
Mix together milk, pumpkin, egg, oil, and vinegar. Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, ginger and salt in separate bowl. Stir into pumpkin mixture just enough to combine.
Steph's note: the recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups milk but I like my pancake batter to be runnier so I use about 2 cups of milk.
