Cinnamon Apple Walnut Pancakes

Buttermilk pancakes with hunks of apples, tremendous cinnamon flavor and a sprinkling of crunchy walnuts over top. Because apples were made for cinnamon and walnuts! The threesome belong together. Truly.

This is the time of the year when I start longing for chilly mornings and apple season. Trips to the pumpkin patch and changing leaves. I start wishing time would speed up just a bit so we can get there faster.

Don’t hate on me.

Fall makes my world go around. I practically live for it. And winter too but that is getting way ahead of myself.

As I made and ate these warmly spiced, apple-spiked pancakes I quit wishing. It was a delicious taste of fall and a reminder of all we have to look forward to.

Ready or not it is just right around the corner. Isn’t it?

Humor me.
