Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Pumpkin pie spice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
Instructions
Preheat your pizzelle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together using a whisk or hand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the melted and cooled butter until fully incorporated, creating a smooth batter.
Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of batter (depending on the size of your pizzelle maker) onto the center of the preheated plates.
Close the pizzelle maker and cook for 30-60 seconds, or until the pizzelles are golden brown and crisp.
Use a spatula or tongs to carefully remove the pizzelles and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the pizzelles as-is or dust them lightly with powdered sugar for a festive touch.
