I am downright giddy this morning.
The sun is finally here and the temperature is warm! And it is supposed to stay this way for the Thanksgiving weekend.
I feel like running a marathon.
Ok, maybe not a full marathon, but I am excited for my run today. ;)
Yesterday I got out for a 4 mile run and it was glorious. If there is one thing I have learned it is that no matter how gloomy the weather, getting outdoors will always boost my mood! I felt amazing after my run yesterday (and no falls).
This morning I had some pancake business to take care of after yesterday’s debacle…
Meet yesterday:
Don’t ask.

The angels are singing, can you hear them?
Spiced Up & Stacked Pumpkin Butter Pancakes For One
Adapted from my healthy Spelt Pancakes For One
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup stone ground Kamut flour (or flour of choice)
- 3/4 cup almond milk
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste or 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 tsp cinnamon + dash of nutmeg + dash ginger
- 1/2 tbsp sugar
- Pinch sea salt
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- Pecans
- Homemade Pumpkin Butter
Directions: Grease and preheat a skillet on the stovetop. In a medium sized bowl, mix the dry ingredients (baking powder, flour, sugar, sea salt, spices). In a small bowl mix the wet ingredients (vanilla, almond milk, coconut oil (melted). Add wet to dry and whisk well. Pour less than 1/4 cup per pancake and cook until bubble form. Flip and cook until golden on the opposite side. Layer with Homemade Pumpkin Butter and pecans and sprinkle with coconut. Serves 1.
I’m seriously addicted to this Homemade Pumpkin Butter.
At each meal, I ask myself: Is there any way I can somehow incorporate pumpkin butter? ;)
These were incredibly delicious.
Today is the last day for voting in the Project Food Blog Challenge #3. I would greatly appreciate your support in carrying me into the next round!
I’m off to bake up my orders and hopefully cap the work day with some much needed paper work and some last minute baking for Thanksgiving.
Have a great day! :)

and i LOVE the fall foliage in the background!!! i was just noticing how pretty our foliage is outside of our office window to a coworker who sits next to it… i think i appreciate it way more than he does, but its the small things, right?
This is the most fall-looking post I’ve seen this season!!! I love it! Those pancakes look delish and this whole post makes me want to have a cozy day at home and make some pumpkin butter!
I can’t wait for the trees here to look like that :)
Not only do these sound amazing & look beautiful, but those beautiful autumn leaves are making me jealous!!
Ooh wow those look delicious. I love pumpkin butter!

everytime I see your comment I smile!
These pancakes look incredible!
Your pictures are so captivating and beautiful lately.
Baking for Thanksgiving!? You’re on top of it!
You do seem to be enjoying pumpkin lately! The pancakes do look heavenly though, I grant you.
What lovely light!!!!!
Did you take those pictures during the golden hour? The warmth of them is all together incredibly inviting! :)
Thanks :) I think they were taken around 8:30?
Lovely :)
i LOOOVE everything about Fall, all those pictures are amazing, love those colors.
Those look delicious! I’m so very obsessed with any fall flavor right now. I made your pumpkin gingerbread vegan overnight oats the other day and almost died and went to heaven. I can only imagine how delicious these pancakes are!
You’re so right about getting yourself out for a run- it ALWAYS makes me feel better. I never come back from a run in a huff or angry. Gotta love those endorphins! :)
I LOVE this quote “I never come back from a run in a huff or angry”
SO SO true
Every morning I am asking myself how I incorporate pumpkin too! It’s just way too delicious!
Can never get enough pumpkin! =)
Holy smokes, those look amazing!!! I LOVE the way you photographed them with fall leaves and gourds. I aspire to taking food shots for my blog as nice as these are!!!
It’s crazy to think that your Thanksgiving is so much earlier than ours! You’re getting me in the mood for stuffing and I know I still have to wait another month! Thaaaaaaanks ;)
These pancakes look gorgeous! I bet they tasted pretty, too… pretty nutritious, that is!
Those look DIVINE!!!! Yum!
I am not getting sick of all the pumpkin!! LOVE IT!
your photos melt my heart Angela!
