These pumpkin pancakes are filled with pumpkin flavor. The lightly spiced pancakes are made with canned pumpkin and optional chopped pecans. These are excellent pancakes to make for fall breakfasts! I like to sprinkle a few toasted pecans on the stack of pancakes, then smother them with maple syrup.
