If you are like me, you probably have a container of leftover canned pumpkin in your fridge from Halloween weekend baking. I got this recipe from the Martha Stewart Magazine issue from October 2004. It’s a great pancake recipe – soft and yummy. I just noticed that my sister, Melanie, also has a pumpkin pancake recipe to share, so it looks like no one around here will have leftover canned pumpkin for long! 🙂

My husband is very particular about his pancakes (that’s ok because I’mparticular about most of my food”!) I made these pancakes for breakfast today andhe said. “Those are the bestpancakes you’ve ever made!”
Now that's a fantastic way to use up leftover pumpkin!!
Those look SO good! Maybe I'll make them for dinner tomorrow night. 🙂
These are so yummy! My kids couldn't get enough of them. I think next time I may cut down the ginger a bit. Otherwise, perfect!
Have you ever had the pancakes with apple cider syrup? I got a great recipe from a sister in my cooking group at church and she had the best syrup recipe that went great with these pumpkin pancakes. Oh I just love those pancakes! 🙂
Hi Susanne! How nice of you – thanks! Isn't it fun to collect pretty serving plates? 🙂 I bought this one at TJMaxx for $5. I love the kitchen ware area in TJMaxx – great deals on fun plates, etc. They also sell this scalloped plate in a square shape and also in a red glaze. Sometimes I buy plates like this for a birthday gift, and bring it over with treats on it.
Erin, I meant to ask you yesterday, where did you get your serving plate that you have the pancakes on? It is beautiful! Thanks!!
I'm picturing these topped with apple pie filling…oh man!!
These rock, my wife made them, she loves martha more than me

Yummy!!!! I LOVE pumpkin! Can't wait to try them 🙂
They look fabulous!!!!
