How to cook mini pancake bites?
- Heat a pan or griddle on medium-low heat and grease it with oil or butter if desired. You do not have to grease if using a nonstick griddle.1 to 2 tablespoon Oil

Notes
- My pie filling was not too thick or thin. Depending on how thin your filling is, add flour and baking soda.
- I generally use a nonstick skillet to cook pancakes. If you are using any other, make sure you grease the pan.
- To avoid your pancake getting dark brown or burnt, always cook it on medium-low flame, especially if you have added sugar.
Pumpkin pancake variations
- You can add nuts like walnuts, almonds, and pecans for additional crunch.
- Add vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- If serving for kids, add some chocolate chips.
