These waffles are my kids new favorite waffles. They're delicious! They have a light texture and the pumpkin flavor is not overpowering. The serving size is for Belgian waffles, but they will work fine in a regular waffle iron also.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 30m

Yield Makes 4 cups batter

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch of ground clove
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon coarse salt
3 eggs
1 3/4 cups whole milk
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled; plus more, softened, for serving
Nonstick cooking spray
Pure maple syrup and toasted pumpkin seeds, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Set a rack on a rimmed baking sheet and place in oven. Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, spices, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together, eggs, milk, pumpkin and melted butter; add flour mixture and mix just until batter is combined.
  • Lightly coat waffle iron with cooking spray. Pour about 1 cup batter into center of iron (amount may vary depending on size of iron), spreading evenly with a spatula. Cook until waffles are golden brown and crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from iron and quickly toss back and forth from hand to hand to cool slightly and allow waffles to crisp up. Transfer to rack in oven; repeat with remaining batter. Serve with butter, syrup and pumpkin seeds.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin puree. Not all pumpkin purees are created equal. For the best results, look for a puree that is made from 100% pumpkin and has no added sugar or spices.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a hot waffle iron. A hot waffle iron will help to create crispy waffles.
  • Don't overcrowd the waffle iron. Overcrowding the waffle iron will make the waffles cook unevenly.
  • Serve the waffles immediately. Waffles are best served immediately after they are made. However, you can keep them warm in a preheated oven for up to 15 minutes.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin waffles are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a stack of fluffy, flavorful waffles that are perfect for any occasion.
