Healthy Pumpkin Pancakes

My family loves these pancakes. They cook up very thick and heavy so two will seriously fill you up. They are great for teenagers who can eat you out of house and home, yet they aren't full of saturated fat, sugar, or processed flour. Also, pumpkin is a fruit so you are eating one of your servings of fruits and veges without even knowing it!

• Ready In: 25 mins

Ingredients

• 2  cups whole wheat flour (I use whole wheat white flour)

• 2 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

• 1⁄2 teaspoon allspice
• 1⁄2 teaspoon ginger
• 2  cups nonfat milk
• 1  teaspoon vanilla
• 3  tablespoons olive oil (so much better for you and doesn't affect the flavor)

Directions

1. Mix all the dry ingredients well.
2. Mix all the wet ingredients in with the dry ingredients until there are no clumps.
3. Cook on medium heat until the edges look dry, then flip.
