A deliciously perfect twist on traditional pancakes! My allspice was expired, so I made up my own batch with cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. I also combined the vinegar into the milk and let it sit for 5 minutes before adding to the other wet ingredients. The overall pumpkin flavor was subtle, which was fine by me, but next time I will double the spices as I LOVE a lot of spice. I really appreciate a fluffy pancake and the texture was spot-on. Even my pumpkin-hating hubby gobbled down a couple, and 4 year-old DD and I SCARFED these down! I foresee these fluffy pancakes as a regular weekend breakfast staple during the fall/winter months. The toppings and/or add-ins are endless: sauteed apples or pears, sweetened pumpkin flavored whipped cream, a cream cheese or real maple glaze, raisins, chocolate chips, nuts.....

Very fluffy and moist - just no pumpkin flavor.

Was so good. I was a little wary at first, but one bite was enough to make me fall in love with this recipe. I had a hard time finding out exact measurements for the changes people suggested. So here's what i changed based on what i read. Omitted the vinegar, 2 cups of milk, 2 eggs, 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg, and added 1/4 teaspoon more then suggested, next time I would do even more. Was very good, fluffy and thick. Tasted delicious on it's own, i'm sure would also taste goood with syrup and/or butter.

As is, I'd give this recipe four stars. Our first batch wasn't sweet enough for our taste and didn't have much cinnamon or allspice flavor. The texture was great though. We tweaked the recipe the next time by increasing the cinnamon, brown sugar, and allspice considerably. I also added nutmeg and ground cloves, along with some Mexican vanilla and pecans. With those changes, I'd give it five stars. I love the added crunch of the nuts. We topped ours with the Cinnamon Cream Syrup from this site and also the cream cheese topping from the French Apple Pie with Cream Cheese Topping recipe. Both were amazing. This recipe is nice because you can change it to suit your own taste, and ours run a little more decadent. We'll make this again.

This was just what I was looking for! A wonderful fall recipe with great flavor. I made the recipe just as written and the kids (and my husband and I) gobbled the pancakes up.

Use cooked sweet potatoes and Bisquick. No added brown sugar. Family loved them. Asked how I could come up with such delicious recipes. Thanks allrecipes.com

I like trying new pancake recipes and this one is very very good! Will definitely make it again and again through the season. I followed the directions and it turned out great, no need to add more milk or more spices. I baked pumpkin and pureed it with blender few days in advance - easy and all natural :) I am sure you can use buttermilk instead of milk+vinegar, usually this is what I use for pancakes, but using milk+vinegar is more convenient, since we always have it at home :)

Fantastic! Basically my review is off of what I made up using this recipe as a base. 1 cup pancake mix, 1/3 cup milk, 1/3 cup water, part of 1 egg, 1 tbs of oil, 1 tbs brown sugar, 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree, dash of pumpkin spice, dash of cinnamon. This made only 4 pancakes and they were incredible. I would imagine if you have all the ingredients for this recipe, it would come out amazing. It just so happens that I totally winged it since I didn't have everything the recipe called for. I will be making this again!!!
