Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturerโs instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and brown sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
If your waffle iron requires it, lightly coat it with nonstick cooking spray or oil.
Scoop the recommended amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron (check your waffle ironโs instructions for the correct amount) and close the lid.
Cook the waffles for 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. The exact time will vary depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.
