Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
• 1.25 cups milk
• 2 eggs
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 0 nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

In another bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are okay.

Step 4

Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly coat it with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 5

Pour the batter onto the center of the waffle iron (amount will vary depending on your waffle maker size) and spread slightly to cover the surface.

Step 6

Close the waffle iron and cook the waffle until it is golden brown and crisp, typically 4–5 minutes. Follow specific waffle iron instructions for timing.

Step 7

Carefully remove the waffle and place it on a cooling rack to prevent sogginess. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, whipped cream, nuts, or fresh fruit.
