Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 cups brown sugar
• 1 cups pumpkin purée (not pie filling)
• 1.5 cups buttermilk
• 2 large eggs
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0 as needed non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt. Whisk together to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.

Step 2

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk the brown sugar, pumpkin purée, buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently fold them together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once heated, lightly spray the waffle iron plates with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 5

Ladle the batter into the waffle iron, using enough to cover about two-thirds of the surface area. Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, approximately 4-5 minutes (or as per your waffle iron's settings).

Step 6

Carefully remove the cooked waffle and transfer it to a wire rack or plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, re-spraying the waffle iron as needed.

Step 7

Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, whipped cream, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
