Pumpkin Puff Pancakes w/ Apple Cider Syrup

Are you looking for a perfect fall breakfast food? This is it, everyone! You have to make these for breakfast or maybe for breakfast-for-dinner sometime. I was first introduced to these amazing pumpkin pancakes about a week ago by Hollie at a cooking group that I am in. And now I've told all my in-laws that I'm making these for breakfast on Thanksgiving. Oh and the apple cider syrup... it smells heavenly. And it makes the pancakes truly amazing. I'm planning to make a jar of it this weekend. I'm really excited about it.
