Moist Pumpkin Muffins

Moist moist moist. These are the most moist muffins I have ever made.  I started making banana bread and after I realized that I did not have enough bananas, ( I misread the recipe)  I got the idea to add some roasted pumpkin from the night before.
I had raw pumpkin, roasted with olive oil and Tonys as a side dish for dinner the other night. Delicious on its on- I had used some of it in my pasta salad, but still had leftovers.  When I added it to the banana bread dough, ,without bananas....it turned out awesome. I am so thrilled.  I am playing around a bit to give it more of a spice flavor, but as is, it was delicious.  Once I get the recipe perfect, I will share.

Think outside the box....you do not always have to use recipes as intended.  Mix it up for the season.  In the summer, this could easily be done with Strawberries or blueberries.

Pancakes with Chinese Honey and Powdered Sugar

 Making pancakes is a weekend tradition in our house, usually with bananas or plain but always with syrup.  But on this day we ran out of syrup,  so instead we used Chinese honey and powdered sugar on our pancakes.  A big crowd pleaser for the kids and when I say kids I mean my 18 month old and husband...!
Whipped cream and chocolate chips, nuts and fresh fruit,  chocolate syrup, sprinkles..... what else do you put on top of pancakes?
