Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes

I used to love eating pancakes as a kid. However, the pancakes I used to eat were not so healthy. I always added lots of maple syrup and sugar powder.

When I got older, I did not eat pancakes for a very long time, since they are packed with sugar. However, A couple of years ago, I started experimenting to make healthier pancakes. It was a big challenge; how could I replace the sugars, but still make my pancakes tasty?

Then I found out about the world of spices. I started using cinnamon, biscuit spices and pumpkin spices. Super tasty & healthy as it does not contain any sugar. Now I believe I make the best pancakes! By adding pumpkin to the batter, you will notice that the pancakes become fluffy with a nice spicy taste. Pumpkin is super healthy because it contains a lot of good nutrients, fiber, and it is very low in calories; a bonus if you want to lose some weight!
