I didn't make the syrup (which sounds awesome, by the way), and I did a couple things different with the pancake part: I added freshly grated nutmeg, substituted the sugar with maple sugar, and used apple sauce in exchange for the oil. It had good flavor, but not pumpkin-y enough for me. I also felt the texture was a bit too mushy, even though I know I cooked them enough. I think I would try another recipe next time.
