Homemade Pumpkin Waffle Recipe
Oh, don't you just love a big breakfast sometimes? It's always nice to take a break from toast, granola, and overnight steel cut oats once in while and enjoy something extra delicious.
My kids would choose to have overnight sticky buns or cinnamon rolls every morning if I let them, but they are also huge fans of these pumpkin waffles! And when fall comes around, there is not such a thing as eating too many pumpkin recipes.
I love that these waffles are easy to make
Ingredients
Making pumpkin waffles or pumpkin pancake recipe is easy and you'll just need a few basic pantry ingredients.
- whole wheat flour

How to make pumpkin waffles
To make pumpkin waffles, first combine all the dry ingredients together in a medium mixing bowl.
Next, you'll stir in the wet ingredients and mix well until you have a smooth batter. The pumpkin waffle recipe calls for 1 cup buttermilk, but you'll probably want to add more milk to the batter since the batter thickens up the longer it sits.
If you run out of buttermilk, you can use regular milk to thin down the pumpkin pancake batter.
Cook on a hot griddle or hot waffle iron. We love using this belgian waffle iron.
What to serve with pumpkin waffles or pumpkin pancakes
The easiest topping for pumpkin waffles is pure maple syrup. We love to buy a big bottle at Costco since it's the most affordable option we've found.
However, if I'm feeling extra ambitious, I'll whip up a batch of this homemade buttermilk syrup. My kids love this stuff.
Fresh banana and whipped cream are also a great addition to top you pumpkin waffles with.
