These pancakes are a fantastic fall breakfast. They're light and fluffy with the wonderful essence of pumpkin pie. They feature ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, buttermilk, canned pumpkin, and dark brown sugar for additional sweetness. There's no fancy equipment required; just fold the wet and dry ingredients together to make the batter, then cook on a griddle or in a skillet until perfectly browned. Sprinkling a little bit of powdered sugar over the pancakes before serving while they're still warm really put them over the top. You'll soon find yourself making them over and over again as soon as the temperature starts to drop.
