Saturday morning to me means:
…sleeping in until {gasp} 8am
…drinking coffee while leisurely checking my favorite blogs on my laptop
…reading my bible underneath the covers with Dexter curled up next to me
…throwing a load of dirty clothes in the wash because I’ve procrastinated doing it all week
…pulling some bacon out of the freezer and gathering ingredients to make fluffy pancakes, dripping with maple syrup.
Saturday mornings are special. I hope in the future when I have kids of my own, I can keep up the pancake and bacon tradition. My new favorite pancakes? These thick chocolate chip pumpkin spice ones. Oh my, are they ever decadent and delicious.
They make me happy. And bonus? They freeze + reheat beautifully. Just wrap leftover pancakes individually in tin foil and stick ’em in the freezer for busy weekday mornings. When you’re ready to eat, just unwrap, pop in the toaster, and in a matter of minutes you can enjoy fresh pumpkin pancakes bursting with gooey chocolate chips.
Grab the recipe over at PBS Food. Happy Saturday, friends!

November 3, 2012 at 6:46 amOoh yes, weekends were MADE for pancakes! These sound unbelievable. I’m totally OD-ing on pumpkin this season but it’s just too good to miss out on!

November 3, 2012 at 7:03 amI made pumpkin pnacakes the morning after Halloween and it was the same kind of morning. A lot of my friends had work cancelled because of the hurricane, so we all slept in and ate pumpkin pancakes!

November 3, 2012 at 11:19 amI think we need to make pumpkin live on as a year round flavor. We can start by having this pancakes with bacon every saturday! What if you put bacon in the pancakes? That could be delicious too. yum 🙂

November 3, 2012 at 1:01 pmI recently started a site and I am trying to become a better cook through testing out different recipes across the web (before developing my own) but I always end up bookmarking your recipes! Can you ever make something that I DON’T want to try ?? 😉

Kristen @ notsodomesticated
November 3, 2012 at 3:26 pmI love relaxing Saturday mornings. I haven’t had a good ‘stay in my pj’s and make pancakes and bacon’ kind of Saturday morning in entirely too long! I think that needs to change next weekend!
Liz @ Tip Top Shape

November 5, 2012 at 5:07 pmI just made pumpkin spice pancakes on Saturday morning! I’m still tweaking the recipe but should be posting it soon. Hadn’t thought about adding chocolate chips though…
Bridget
November 7, 2012 at 12:41 pmFinally, a pumpkin dish that isn’t loaded with sugar and butter! I recently bought a waffle iron, and was wondering if this batter would work for waffles? Should I add more baking powder to make sure they’re fluffy?
Margaret
November 7, 2012 at 7:09 pmThese look amazing, Jenna! I can’t wait to try them!! I hope you make another stop in your old stomping grounds, Charleston, before your book tour is over!

November 12, 2012 at 2:41 pmYUM! I love pumpkin chocolate chip ANYTHING, and the BH is always trying to get me to make chocolate chip waffles. I am totally not opposed… I just don’t think they go all that well with maple syrup. BUT… add pumpkin and it’s a horse of a different color! DELISH! Can’t wait to try!
Hadiah!
November 25, 2012 at 10:23 amGood day! I could not wait to try this recipe. I did not have to purchase anything because I had all of the ingredients for this Sunday morning surprise. Alas, it did not turn out well. They looked as beautiful as the photo. However, the insides were moist, like pudding. And, I was not sure how to fix this dilemma. Please advise.
