    Taste of Home, Oct/Nov '01, p. 40

    Recipe Introduction


    These are so light, moist, and tasty! My only complaint is that they aren't very filling. Delicious w/real maple syrup or Hot Cider Syrup.

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup all purpose flour
    1 T. sugar
    2 t. baking powder
    1/2 t. salt
    3/4 t. ground cinnamon
    1/4 t. ginger
    1/4 t. freshly ground nutmeg or mace
    2 eggs -- separated
    1 cup milk (I used 1%)
    1/2 cup cooked or canned pumpkin
    1 1/2 T. vegetable oil (see note)
    splash of vanilla

    Recipe



    Combine the dry ingredients in a medium or large bowl.

    In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, pumpkin, oil and vanilla.

    Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.

    In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form; fold into batter.

    Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a hot greased griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes. Cook until second side is golden brown.

    Serve with Hot Cider Syrup or maple syrup.

    Yield:
    "15 pancakes

    NOTES : Original recipe only called for 1/2 t. cinnamon and no vanilla and 2 T. oil. I used 1 1/2 T. oil and think 1 T. would probably be fine. I used a 1/3 cup measure and got 12 pancakes. Might up the sugar just a bit next time?

    Hot Cider Syrup

    3/4 cup apple cider or juice
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    1/2 cup corn syrup
    2 T. butter
    1/2 t. lemon juice
    1/8 t. ground cinnamon
    1/8 t. ground nutmeg

    In a saucepan, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered, for 20-25 minutes or until slightly thickened. Let stand for 30 minutes before serving.
