Pumpkin Cardamom Pancakes

Why should the nasty prepackaged foods get all the convenience? Even Paleo pancakes can be premixed in a jar with a tight-fitting lid, making for easy pancake cookin’ in your hotel room! Make sure to use a larger jar than you think you need, as this batter will thicken quite a bit after sitting in a cooler, and you’ll need to add more water before cooking. Start with a small amount of water and add more if needed. Remember, you can always add more, but you can’t remove it once it’s in there! If it gets too runny, well, it still makes a nice crepe-like pancake.
