Pumpkin Pancakes with Spiced Maple Syrup

With the holiday’s vastly approaching, we all should be in a cheery mood while we sip on our pumpkin spice lattes and gab about our plans for 2017. Yet, I can’t stop thinking about how our country is in such bad shape. We’re getting very close to electing our new president and with the recent debates; I’m feeling even less hopeful about the future of our country.

Not to mention the countless shootings of unarmed Black men. For a while I’ve remained silent on my blog about my disgust towards the injustice of African American men. I thought it would be best not to share my personal opinions regarding controversial topics on my blog. But then I realized that I cannot remain silent, I cannot continue sharing recipes with you all and not speak my truth. It took me a while to write publicly on my blog about this but it’s never too late.

I watched the debate the other night and I truly felt embarrassed for our country. Although I won’t get into who I believe will make a better president, I will say that I can only pray for our country as a whole. The mud-slinging and tantrums between two grown adults is quite sad. I feel like I’ve yet to hear about actual plans that either one of them have to really help us. I don’t know, these are just my ramblings.

This is actually the first pumpkin recipe that I’m posting and trust, there are many more to come. These pumpkin pancakes with spiced maple syrup are so good and what’s even better is that they’re so easy to make. Whenever I research pancake recipes, except for the boxed version in stores, the recipes are always so complex. I mean, who seriously wants to pull out 30 ingredients to make pancakes? Not me, and I’m willing to bet, not you either!
