Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes

It is pumpkin season!! I've decided to up my pumpkin game and try some new recipes.  This is the first, pumpkin pancakes. Made these for the committee (Babe and her dad) Saturday. The consensus is that they were "not pumpkinny" enough but they were tasty. I have to agree! NExt time I made a touch of maple extract to the batter to amp the flavor up a bit.
