Pumpkin Waffles
These pumpkin waffles are fluffy and infused with the warm spices that characterize fall. They are a wonderful way to celebrate the season, and can be served with your favorite toppings!
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 cup milk (or a dairy-free alternative)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Set aside.
- In another bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, brown sugar, melted butter, and milk. Mix until well blended.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Grease with a little oil or cooking spray if necessary.
- Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron (the amount will depend on the size of your waffle iron). Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and slightly crispy, about 4-5 minutes.
- Carefully remove the waffles and keep them warm in an oven set to low heat while you repeat the process with the remaining batter.
- Serve the waffles warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, or your choice of toppings like nuts, fruits, or cinnamon dusting.
Indulging in these pumpkin waffles is like wrapping yourself in a cozy blanket of flavors. It’s a perfect dish to enjoy on a beautiful fall morning alongside a hot cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy every bite!
