Anyone else ready for fall!? Here at Garrett Valley Farms, the air is starting to cool and the leaves are just starting to change. Which means it’s time for bonfires, cozy sweaters, and most importantly, pumpkin! There’s no limit to what foods people are making with pumpkin these days and we are on board to try them all!
We decided to make some pumpkin pancakes! Not only that, but pumpkin pancakes with bacon! The pancakes also have cinnamon, another great fall flavor. This recipe is a perfect way to start your morning, or end your day with warm breakfast for dinner!
Garrett Valley Farms Applewood Bacon is a great way to add that bacon taste you love to meals.
Recipe Tips:
Add crumbled bacon to your batter for even more of that bacon flavor. For another option, sprinkle bacon onto the batter while the pancake is cooking.
Really feeling fall flavors? Try adding nutmeg, ginger, or even chai to spice up your pumpkin pancakes with bacon even more!
Try making fresh pumpkin pure instead of canned! It takes more time and effort, and can get really messy. However, it’s a lot of fun! The kids probably want to carve pumpkins anyway. It can be a family project!
