Enjoy those cool fall mornings with these Pumpkin Waffles! These easy, from scratch waffles are delicious drizzled with syrup or topped with whipped cream!
Move over German Pancakes and French Toast!!! I love you both, but make room for these amazing Pumpkin Waffles!!! Breakfast is my favorite meal so I am always up for trying new twists on old favorites. My kids love waffles so it's important to mix things up so we're not eating the same thing all the time. I wasn't sure they were going to go for this pumpkin version but to my surprise I had a hard time keeping hands off these waffles long enough to take pictures! So, if you are someone who looks forward to the pumpkin food craze every year, add these to your menu! This recipe is one you'll use again and again!
What are pumpkin waffles?
They are a slightly dense buttermilk waffle made with pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice! Not to mention, they leave a heavenly aroma in the air!
How to make pumpkin waffles:
- Preheat your waffle iron.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice together.
- Pour in the melted butter, egg, pumpkin puree, and buttermilk. Mix well. This is a thick, fluffy batter.
- Cook the waffles according to your waffle iron's manufacturer's instructions.
- Serve hot with syrup!
What to serve with your pumpkin waffles:
Maple or cinnamon syrups would go best with these waffles. If you're not much of a syrup person then might I suggest a big scoop of whipped cream. I may or may not have made a whipped cream sandwich with these. As for what to serve on the side, bacon, sausage or Nichole's Ham & Egg Muffins are excellent options!
Can these waffles be frozen?
Yes, they can! Just make sure your pumpkin waffles are completely cool before you wrap them in saran wrap, pack them in a gallon size ziploc bag, and pop them in the freezer. When you're ready to use them, reheat your thawed waffles in the toaster to reheat them!
