Description
Delicious pumpkin waffles infused with warm spices, perfect for a comforting autumn breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or almond/oat flour for gluten-free)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1 cup buttermilk (or non-dairy milk)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Begin by gathering all your ingredients, and if you’re using fresh pumpkin puree, ensure it is well-prepared and free from excess moisture.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and a pinch of salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, buttermilk, eggs, and brown sugar until fully incorporated.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, gently folding them together until there are no dry patches. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay!
- Preheat the Waffle Maker: While your batter rests for a few minutes, preheat your waffle maker to ensure a crispy outside.
- Cook the Waffles: Spritz or brush the waffle maker with oil or melted butter to prevent sticking. Then, pour your desired amount of batter into the preheated machine, close the lid, and wait for that delightful sizzle.
- Check for Doneness: Waffles should be a lovely golden color; usually, about 5 minutes in the waffle maker does the trick.
- Serve Warm: Serve immediately with your favorite toppings or keep them warm in a low oven until you’re ready to feast.
Notes
To achieve crispy edges, consider leaving the waffles in the waffle maker a bit longer or placing them in the oven on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper until serving.
