Also, fall is not fall without pumpkin waffles. I know I talk about them all the time, but our family is seriously addicted to them for breakfast (and even sometimes dinner). I posted the recipe many moons ago on my blog but I realized over the years I have adapted the recipe to be a little healthier and I love the changes. Here is my updated version of this family, fall favorite!


- 3 eggs
- 1 pound can of pumpkin (15-16 oz. can)
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 ½ cup flour (I use half wheat and half white flour)
- 1/2 cup sugar (or more if you like it more sweet)
- 1 ½ tsp. baking soda
- 1 ¼ tsp. salt
- 3/4 tsp. nutmeg
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the pumpkin and eggs. Add the water, sugar, and oil and continue to whisk until smooth. Add the seasonings and flour and mix batter just until combined. Heat a waffle iron to medium heat, spray with cooking spray and place a 1/4-1/2 cup of the batter in the waffle maker. Cook until golden brown. Serve the waffle with syrup or whipping cream. Extra waffles can be frozen for later.
This is a great recipe! I made it this morning and it was a much better pumpkin waffle recipe than any of the others that I have tried online. Thanks!
Thanks Emily for leaving a comment. I am so glad you enjoyed this recipe 🙂
Is this a batter that can be made in advance, say a few hours?
Yes, you can make the dough a couple hours in advance.
Kari,
Yes, I have made this dough up the night before and left in the fridge wrapped well. In the morning you can pull them out, let them rise for 20 minutes, roll into rolls, let them rise again and then bake. If you need the dough to be made only a couple hours before just put in a cool place or in the fridge to stop the yeast from growing too quickly. THis dough is really forgiving so you should be fine 😉
