Pumpkin Waffles {recipe #62}

This recipe is perfect for fall and DELICIOUS! 


 Pumpkin Waffles
{recipe borrowed, enjoyed and adapted from: Farm Chicks in the Kitchen}

Makes 8 Waffles

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 T. sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
3 large eggs (separated)
1 3/4 cups milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1/2 cup (or more) canned pumpkin
veggie oil for brushing the waffle iron
+
REAL maple syrup, whipped cream etc for serving

1) Heat the oven to 250 degrees Farenheit. Heat waffle iron. Combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. 
2) Whisk together egg yolks, milk, butter, and pumpkin in a medium sized bowl. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture, stirring until combined. 
3) Beat the egg whites in a small bowl (or KITCHEN AID MIXER!) until stiff and fold them into the batter.
4) Brush the waffle iron with the oil and spoon about 1/4 cup of batter per each waffle in the iron. *Our waffle iron makes 4 at once. If yours makes one, just do the 1/4 cup. As always with waffles it takes a bit of testing/knowing your waffle iron! :)* Cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. 
5) Transfer waffles to the rack in the oven to keep warm and crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve hot with desired toppings.

I bet that this would be AMAZING with a maple whipped cream topping! :) 

What is your favorite fall breakfast?

All for now,
