Fluffy Pumpkin Spice Pancakes from Scratch

Submitted by cookingpompom

"A friend gave me this recipe. Very fluffy, light and morish! Yoghurt makes this a little different, plus adds to the light texture."

Wonderful flavored pancakes and nice switch!!! I made 1/2 of the recipe and followed as written and they were nice and fluffy and moist. We tried them with some butter and a shake of powdered sugar, but not sweet enough for our tastes. We then tried sprinkling on a cinnamon/sugar mixture which went perfectly with these cakes. I also think maple syrup would be good too!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for ZWT8.

This recipe did not work out for me. Maybe it was because I used AP flour, and Greek yogurt, as those were what I had on hand. The batter was super thick, and the pancakes were super dense, did not fluff up at all, and even with 8 minutes on each side, didn't really get done. The taste was great, but consistency was way off.
