Vegan Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

IMG_7116.jpg

It goes without saying that this time of the year begs for pumpkin spice, especially on weekend mornings. These pancakes are so moist and sweet with just the right amount of warm autumn spice. The recipe calls for pumpkin pie spice and I didn’t have any on the shelf, but not to fear, I made my own with pantry spices. The recipe follows.

Double up and keep a batch in the freezer for later!
