Homemade Pumpkin Spice Waffles

These homemade pumpkin spice waffles combine pumpkin puree with a warming blend of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to create a thick yet pourable batter that cooks into golden, tender waffles. The addition of brown sugar and melted butter adds a subtle sweetness and richness, making them ideal for a cozy breakfast or brunch. They crisp slightly on the outside while remaining soft inside, perfect served with butter and maple syrup.

Description

Homemade Pumpkin Spice Waffles blend the earthiness of pumpkin puree with aromatic pumpkin pie spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. The batter incorporates baking powder and baking soda for leavening, resulting in waffles with a balanced rise and a tender crumb. Melted butter and brown sugar enrich the batter, contributing moisture and mild sweetness.

The method involves mixing the dry ingredients separately from the wet, then combining them just until incorporated to maintain a light texture. Cooking in a waffle iron produces a crispy exterior with a moist, flavorful interior. The waffle's moderate sweetness and warm spice make them complement classic toppings like maple syrup and butter.

These waffles are perfect for autumn mornings or whenever you want a comforting twist on the classic waffle. They pair well with coffee or tea and can serve as a base for fruit toppings or whipped cream if desired.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice or 1 tsp each of cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger
  • ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling, canned
  • 2 egg large
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1⁄4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 cup milk plus extra if needed

Instructions

  1. Heat your waffle iron.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice and salt.
  3. In a medium bowl whisk together the pumpkin, eggs, butter, brown sugar and milk until well combined.
  4. Make a well in the dry ingredients, and pour in the wet mixture. Mix together until JUST combine, being careful not to over mix. 
  5. Your mixture will be thick but pourable. If too thick add 1/3 cup extra milk.
