In my mind, the perfect pumpkin waffles recipe channels all the delicious flavor of pumpkin pie into waffle form. This pumpkin waffle is truly exceptional. It uses more pumpkin than literally any other recipe available and is wonderfully rich in spices, thanks to a carefully-balanced blend of cinnamon, clove, ginger, and fresh nutmeg. I hope you love it!
Ingredients
Serving Size: Makes 4 round “Belgian” style pumpkin waffles
1/4 cup light brown sugar
3 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. cloves
1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
2 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted and warm
Directions
1. Lightly oil the waffle iron with vegetable oil, and set it to the desired temperature.
2. Combine brown sugar and cornstarch in a large bowl. Whisk together to break apart the cornstarch. Add the remaining dry ingredients, and whisk to blend.
3. Separate eggs: yolks go in a medium sized bowl and whites get set aside in a smaller bowl.
4. Add Heavens to Betsy Pumpkin Butter and milk to the egg yolks. Whisk to blend and set aside.
5. Whip egg whites with a hand mixer on high until stiff peaks form – about 1 1/2 – 2 minutes. Set aside.
6. Pour melted butter into the yolk/milk/pumpkin mixture. As you pour, whisk to combine.
7. Add the pumpkin mixture to the dry ingredients, and mix them together until just combined. A little lumpiness is fine. That will smooth out when the egg whites are added.
8. Slide the whipped egg whites out of the bowl and onto the mixture you just prepared. Gently fold them in until no white bits are obvious.
9. Once the waffle iron is heated, you’re ready to pour the batter!
Top with whipped cream, a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg and maple syrup. Also yummy with a sprinkling of chopped nuts, sliced strawberries or warm, sautéed apple slices. Be creative and have fun experimenting with your toppings!
