Pumpkin Cinnabon

I wanted some pumpkin for breakfast but I also wanted something that was low key and 'on the go' kind of breakfast so I just made this up. It was really good too, duh.

3/4 Cup Pumpkin (not the pie filling with sugar added)

1 tsp Cinnamon

2 tbsp Sweet Cinnamon Sprinkle

1 Tube reduced fat crescent rolls

Spread out the crescent roll and seal the perforated edges so it becomes one piece of flat dough. Spread out your pumpkin, sprinkle on your cinnamon and Sweet cinnamon Sprinkle. If you don't have the sweet cinnamon sprinkle from Pampered Chef which I'm sure 99% of you don't (even though its AMAZING on everything, oatmeal etc) you could do a mixture of sugar/cinnamon as a sub-par substitute.

Roll up the roll into a tube, gently and not to tight or too loose, you don't want the seams to burst..

Cut into 2  inch thick rolls..

Spread them all over the baking dish..

Bake on 375 for about 10-15 mins maybe even 20 I really don't remember, use your judgement and read the packaging. If you want to be fat/fancy you could brush a little melted butter over the rolls to give them a shiny look.. I didn't and I think they still look fab.

Pumpkin Pancakes

Its officially fall and at my last trip to Trader Joes I got a can of Organic Pumpkin and put it in the cart. At the time my mom asked me what I was going to do with it and I responded that I had no clue. Well this morning (yes friday morning before work) I wanted to kick-off Alex's bday weekend bc I am the bomb.com girlfriend I made pumpkin pancakes.

3/4 can of Organic Pumpkin (not the pie filling with tons of sugar/additives)
2 cups Pancake batter
1 1/3 Cup water
1 Tbsp sweet cinnamon sprinkle

I always use the fiber one pancake mix bc the only other ingredient I need is water and I always have that. Plus it says Fiber one on the box so the marketing works on me. I follow the directions on the box for 7-12 pancakes (these are small pancakes) and just basically add pumpkin in. Next time I would prob even add the entire can of pumpkin.

So add the pumpkin as you deem necessary and just taste the batter to make sure it is what you want. I also added 1 tbsp of a cinnamon/sugar blend that I have from pampered chef.  You could do your own mix of cinnamon and sugar if you don't have this. This adds a hint of sweetness that is just enough even if you don't want to add syrup when they are done.

The trick to get the perfect pancake is to only flip the pancakes once there are air bubbles..

Then do this over and over again, and Serve warm with some berries/bananas whatever you have.

Yes, I am the best GF. Thank you. goodbye.
