YUM

In the spirit of the season we decided to try out a new recipe for pumpkin pancakes for dinner tonight. We thought they were delicious, and Zach chowed down 3 whole pancakes, so I thought I'd share. Just for fun. We ate them with maple syrup. Sorry no pictures, we were too busy eating them. Yum!

Pumpkin-Oat Pancakes

1 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/2 cup regular oats, uncooked
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup pumpkin, mashed and cooked
1 egg
1 egg white
1 T oil
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
2 T sugar
2 T wheat germ
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp cinnamon
Cooking spray

Combine buttermilk and oats; let mixture stand for 15 minutes. Add milk, pumpkin, egg, egg white, and oil to mixture; mix well. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; stir into pumpkin mixture until batter is smooth. Coat a hot griddle with cooking spray. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto griddle. Cook until bubbles start to burst on first side; flip pancake and cook on other side.
