TASTY TUESDAY

There's something about fall that makes me want to be in the kitchen before I am dying of hunger. All the pumpkin and chocolate recipes are calling my name! Welcome fall with something delicious...

Pumpkin Cinnamon Streusel Pancakes

For the cinnamon streusel:

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

2 tablespoons light brown sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

1/8 teaspoon ground cloves 

1 cup milk

1/2 cup canned pumpkin

1 large egg

2 tablespoons canola oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

I added chocolate chips, hehe

Directions:

1. Make the streusel and mix with a fork. Set aside.

2. Whisk dry ingredients. Set aside.

3. Whisk wet ingredients and add to dry ingredients.
