Hey there, fellow food enthusiasts! I’m sure you’ve stumbled upon this page because, like me, you’re on a quest to make your breakfast a tad more exciting, am I right? Well, buckle up, because I’m about to share a recipe that’ll make your taste buds sing. Picture this: the warm smell of cinnamon wafting through the air on a crisp autumn morning, coupled with the gentle hum of a waffle iron at work. Sounds delightful, doesn’t it? This isn’t just any ordinary breakfast dish, oh no. We’re talking about Pumpkin Waffles.
You see, I remember the first time I tasted these beauties. It was a cool Sunday morning, the leaves outside painted in hues of orange and red. There I was, in my cozy kitchen, whipping up some magic. The final product? Golden, crispy waffles with a twist of pumpkin goodness. It was love at first bite!
Pumpkin Waffles (that are glorious):
Prep Time: 25 min.
Cook Time: 10 Minutes
Servings: 5 Waffles
What You Need:
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ Tbsp baking powder
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup pumpkin pure3 ( any brand )
1 ½ cup milk (we used oatmilk)
1 Tbsp olive oil (and a bit more for waffle maker)
2 eggs
1 stick melted butter
½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
What You Do:
1 – In a medium sized bowl, whisk together dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg
2 – Then, in a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, olive oil and pumpkin puree using an electric mixer
3 – Beat for about 1 minute or until smooth, and then add melted butter slowly
4 – Add dry ingredients to the mixture; continue whisking but do not overdo it (it’s ok if the texture is a bit lumpy)
5 – Preheat waffle maker and brush the surface with a little bit of olive oil; then pour about ½ cup batter per waffle
6 – Cook the waffle until crispy (usually until steam doesn’t come out anymore) for about 5-6 minutes, or depending on waffle maker
7 – Serve with desired toppings! We like maple syrup, whipped cream, nuts, cinnamon, jam, and fruit
And just like that, you’ve made yourself a batch of delicious, mouth-watering pumpkin waffles. Trust me, once you’ve tried these, you’ll never look at waffles the same way again. So, what are you waiting for? Get to waffling!
