Pumpkin and Chocolate Pancakes

The pumpkin and chocolate pancakes are perfect for a tasty breakfast. Easy to prepare, no scale needed, just a tablespoon. In brackets, my lactose-free version with plant-based milk, and I didn’t add sugar to these pancakes due to the pumpkin. I served them simply with maple syrup, but you can also spread some chocolate hazelnut cream between the pancakes. Since oranges are starting to be available, I recommend enjoying them with a good orange, carrot, and lemon juice.
