Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

I adore pumpkin recipes, in fact, you’ll find a ton on my site. I love that this has Greek yogurt (extra protein is good). Of course, lavished with the cream cheese maple icing it’s almost like a dessert, but they are delicious without the icing too.

I think you and your family will love them too!
