I always make pumpkin pancakes starting in September to remind me of all the great Fall foods to come.These are a little thick but rich w/ pumpkin, while the raisins give a nice chewy, sweet contrast. I've been making these for over 30 yrs w/ variations but these are the favorite hands down.So good, u don't even need the syrup!!
