How to Make Perfect Pumpkin Waffles
In a medium-sized bowl whisk together dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
In a separate bowl whisk together eggs, milk, olive oil, and pumpkin puree using an electric mixer or by hand. Beat for about 1 minute or until smooth.
Slowly add in melted butter. Then, add the dry ingredients to the mixture and continue whisking. Do not over-mix. It’s OK if the texture is a bit lumpy.
Preheat a waffle maker and brush the surface with a little bit of olive oil or other neutral oil.
Pour about ½ cup batter per waffle (adjust this amount to the size of your waffle maker). Cook the waffle until crispy for about 5-6 minutes or per your waffle maker’s instructions.
TIP: The first waffles made can get soft before all the waffles are done. To keep the waffles crispy, keep them on a rack in a toaster oven or oven set on the ‘warm’ setting.
Serve with desired toppings like maple syrup, whipped cream, walnuts, cinnamon, jam, or your favorite fruits.
