Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Whisk to combine.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, add the eggs. Whisk on high speed until foamy about one minute. Add the pumpkin puree, buttermilk, melted butter, maple syrup, brown sugar and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Don't over mix the batter.
  • Heat your waffle maker and grease with butter or a non stick spray. Add enough batter to the waffle maker to cover all the holes and close the lid. Cook according to your waffle maker instructions. These take about 6 minutes per batch.
  • Place the cooked waffles on a baking tray set over a baking rack and place in a warm oven while you make the rest of the waffles.
  • Serve warm with your favourite toppings.

*A note on times provided: appliances vary, any prep and/or cook times provided are estimates only.

Notes

  1. Cooking times provided are per batch!
  2. Don't over mix the batter - When you add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, just fold them in until combined. Over mixing will result in rubbery waffles.
  3. Avoid overfilling the waffle maker - If you overfill the waffle maker, the batter will seep down the edges once you shut it.
  4. Keep waffles warm as you cook the rest - Place the cooked waffles on a baking rack placed over a baking tray and keep warm in the oven while you make the rest of the waffles.
