Ingredients
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup milk
3 Tablespoons granulated sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron to medium heat (level 3-4).
Preheat your oven to 175°F for keeping finished waffles warm.
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Fold in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice until just combined being careful not to overmix.
Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour about 1/2 cup of batter into the center of the preheated waffle iron.
Cook for approximately 2 minutes or per the iron’s indicator.
Transfer cooked waffles directly to the warm oven until ready to serve.
Notes
Keep the batter slightly lumpy to ensure a light and airy texture. Store leftover waffles in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or freeze for up to a month and reheat in a toaster.
