Pumpkin Pancakes

I have a lot of pumpkin right now, and I am getting more. I also had a bacon and eggs in the fridge. The pumpkin recipe can be found here. I used more of the pumpkin puree that I made on Sunday. I estimate that the entire dinner costs around $8 to feed all five of us. Not bad, I'll have money left over for gambling and cigs--if I smoked or gambled.

The apples are just peeled, diced and sauteed with cinnamon, brown sugar, and butter until their deliciousness increases 10 fold.

The pancake recipe was spot on, but I had to double it for our family, I had 3 pancakes left over when all was said and done. They smelled absolutely amazing, I did read a few other recipes that called for 6 tablespoons of pumpkin, if I were you, I wouldn't bother, definitely not enough to be tasty. Also, I specifically try to find recipes that use buttermilk, as I have about 2-4 cups of buttermilk from making homemade butter each week.

Pumpkin Bread with Maple Glaze

I made this today. Here is the original recipe. I diverted from it, because it wouldn't be a recipe if I actually followed it. It would be a commandipe?
So, I used walnuts instead of pecans, and I only made one loaf. The problem with dividing the recipe was that the original calls for 3 eggs. Well, I used two and all is right in the world. I also topped it with a maple glaze for which here is the recipe:
Maple syrup
Confectioner's sugar

Mix about 2 tbsp maple with about 1/4 c confectioners sugar, adding more ingredients until you like the consistency and pour or spoon it over the bread. Easy? Yes.
