Pumpkin Pancakes

 I whipped up a patch of pumpkin pancakes for PB and I recently.  Hubs says sewer rat and pumpkin pie tastes the same and he isn't going to eat either of the filthy mother fudgers... Well then, more for us, bring on the sewer rat!
I followed the pancake recipe on the side of the box of Jiffy baking mix.  I then added a can of pure pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.  I didn't measure the spices but added what was practical to me.  You can never have too much cinnamon so load up on it.  Ginger can be strong so add about 2 dashes.  Nutmeg tastes like tree bark so add 1 pinch.   Make and place butter facial features just before serving.    For folks that are pumpkin "sensitive",  regular pancake batter could be used with orange food coloring added.  For those that are health sensitive and butter is a four letter word, use sliced fruit for the ocular and nasal regions.  As far as the flavor of the pancakes go, they turned out very yummy! Substitute canned sewer rat if you have it!

I based my idea after the below image.  Mine turned out stemless due to a gang of pumpkin stem snapping bandits that have been running a muck through the pumpkin patches of our fair city.
