Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 1.25 cups milk
- 2 eggs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are okay.
Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly coat it with nonstick cooking spray.
Pour the batter onto the center of the waffle iron (amount will vary depending on your waffle maker size) and spread slightly to cover the surface.
Close the waffle iron and cook the waffle until it is golden brown and crisp, typically 4–5 minutes. Follow specific waffle iron instructions for timing.
Carefully remove the waffle and place it on a cooling rack to prevent sogginess. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, whipped cream, nuts, or fresh fruit.
