- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Notes
- Waffles are best warm and fresh but extra can be kept airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Reheat gently in a toaster oven before serving to encourage them to crisp up.
