Gluten-Free Pumpkin Pecan Waffles
Description
The Gluten-Free Pumpkin Pecan Waffles feature a blend of almond flour, coconut flour, and arrowroot powder as the dry base, enriched with cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. Pumpkin puree and eggs add moisture and structure, while coconut oil and almond milk contribute to the batter's richness and consistency. Allowing the batter to rest helps the coconut flour absorb liquids for better texture.
The waffles cook in a preheated waffle maker for about eleven minutes, resulting in a light, fluffy interior. If a crisper exterior is preferred, cooking for an additional five minutes achieves that texture. The flavors balance sweetness and fall spices, lending a seasonal touch to the dish.
These waffles can be topped with a variety of options such as coconut whipped cream, melted butter, or caramel sauce as suggested, enhancing their profile. Care should be given to use almond flour (not almond meal) for a finer crumb, and letting the batter sit improves consistency.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour blanched
- 1 tbs arrowroot powder
- 2 tbs coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ⅓ cup pumpkin puree canned
- 3 egg
- 1 tbs coconut oil measured solid then melted
- ½ cup almond milk
- ⅛ cup honey
Instructions
- Pre-heat the waffle maker to high and grease. Melt the coconut oil in the microwave.
- In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and mix well.
- Whisk in the eggs, coconut oil, pumpkin, and honey together until smooth. Pour into the bowl of dry ingredients and combine.
- Stir in the almond milk. Let the waffle batter sit for 3-5 minutes for the coconut flour to absorb.
- Portion out four waffles into the Heritage Rock Waffle Maker. Make sure there's no thin spots.
- Close the lid fully and let cook for 11 minutes (if you like your waffles crispy, cook for another five minutes).
- Open the waffle maker and use a silicone spatula to remove the waffles. Pour any remaining batter to make the last waffle and repeat cooking instructions.
- Top with your favorites and enjoy!
Notes
- Let the batter rest for 3-5 minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb moisture for optimal waffle texture.
- Use almond flour (blanched) rather than almond meal to avoid a gritty texture.
- Cook waffles for 11 minutes for fluffiness; extend cooking for 5 more minutes if you prefer crispier waffles.
- Suggested toppings include coconut whipped cream, melted butter, or homemade caramel sauce to complement the spices.
