Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

I know I rarely post anything on here, but I wanted to share this AMAZING pumpkin pancake recipe I found.  It's the best one I've ever had.  I'm just going to include the link since I haven't altered the recipe at all.  And I'm lazy.  Whoever put the link to Annie's Eats on this blog is very appreciated!  I follow it regularly and have gotten a lot of great recipes there.  I really like her style.  Anyway, these pancakes are so easy and so good.  I love the spongy texture.  Just be careful not to burn them (turn before the bubbles are popping).  I put about 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon in with PURE maple syrup and it was amazing on these pancakes.  The splurge on the good syrup is worth it.  Hope you enjoy!
