Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
- 2 units large eggs
- 1.25 cups milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 as needed cooking spray or additional melted butter (for greasing the waffle iron)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt until well combined.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined; do not overmix. The batter will be slightly lumpy, which is normal.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a bit of melted butter.
Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the center of the heated waffle iron (this amount varies by waffle maker—typically about 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup per waffle). Close the waffle iron and cook the waffles until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges. This usually takes about 4-6 minutes, but follow your waffle maker's guidelines.
Carefully remove the waffles using a non-metal utensil to avoid scratching your waffle iron. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the iron as necessary between batches.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, whipped cream, chopped nuts, or a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
Enjoy your cozy and toasty pumpkin waffles!
