Farm Flavor

3 c milk                                                              

1 c pumpkin puree

1 egg                                                                    

2 T vegetable oil

2 T vinegar                                                        

2 c all-purpose flour

3 T brown sugar                                              

2 t baking powder

1 t baking soda                                                

1 t ground allspice

1 t ground cinnamon                                  

½ t ground ginger

½ t salt                                                                

Maple syrup, if desired

In a bowl, mix together the milk, pumpkin, egg, oil and vinegar. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, ginger and salt. Add dry mixture to the pumpkin mixture, stirring just enough to combine. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately ¼ cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides, flipping first side when bubbles form, and serve hot. Tips: To sweeten this fall breakfast treat, add chocolate chips to the batter just before pouring into the cast iron skillet.
