Pumpkin Pancakes

There’s nothing like fluffy, homemade pumpkin pancakes on a crisp Fall morning. I start making these pancakes for my family every September and it’s one of their favs. Waking up to the smell of nutmeg and cinnamon baking is one of best things in life. Serve these with buttermilk syrup and you have one super scrumptious breakfast!

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 Tablespoons vinegar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 egg
  • 2 TBSP vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a glass measuring cup, measure out milk. Add vinegar and stir. Let sit 5 minutes.
  2. In the meantime, in a separate mixing bowl, combine pumpkin, egg, oil, vanilla, and brown sugar. Whisk to combine.
  3. Once milk has set up for 5 minutes, pour into pumpkin mixture and whisk together.
  4. Add remaining ingredients (except for chocolate chips if using), and whisk together until smooth.
  5. Stir in chocolate chips if using.
  6. Scoop out pancakes and bake over medium-low.
  7. If pancake batter is too thick, add milk or water until you get the desired consistency, adding 2 TBSP at a time.

Plum Bread

Plum Bread

I found this recipe in my mom’s collection of recipes years ago and it immediately piqued my interest. I knew I had to make it! My mom got this recipe from her mom, and my grandma used to make it all of the time back in the 1970s. My mom loved this bread growing up, and now I make it for my family and we love it too!

This bread is so delectably moist and delicious. Whenever plums are in season, you better bet you’ll find me making this recipe. Plums are in season from summer through early fall, so right now is the perfect time to make this bread!

When choosing a plum, hold it in the palm of your hand, it should feel heavy. Make sure to choose ones that aren’t too squishy and overripe. A ripe plum should be firm but have some give when you lightly squeeze it.
