Pumpkin Spice Waffles
The best breakfast ever! Crispy golden on the outside, fluffy on the inside. You’ll want to make this all year long!
As soon as the weather turns cold (and believe me, it turns very cold very quickly in Chicago, snowing on Halloween!), I am legit pumpkin-everything.
I am all about that PSL, pumpkin bread, pumpkin French toast, pumpkin anything. You name it. Anything with pumpkin, I AM THERE. And I am all over these pumpkin spice waffles.
Seriously. That sheet pan of pumpkin waffles up above? ALL MINE.
Made with buttermilk, pumpkin puree, and all that is good with pumpkin pie spice, this is truly the best breakfast one can ask for this Fall. Serve with warm maple syrup, or if you really want to go that extra mile, dollops of homemade whipped cream will go a very long way, garnished with cinnamon.
Freeze in individual servings to indulge all the pumpkin glory even after pumpkin season is long over!
Pumpkin Spice Waffles
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F and a waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the top and bottom of the waffle iron or coat with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice and salt.
- In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, pumpkin puree, eggs and butter. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula just until moist but slightly lumpy.
- Pour a scant 1/2 cup of the pumpkin mixture into the waffle iron, close gently and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 4-5 minutes; keep warm in oven.
- Serve immediately.

These were excellent! I made a batch for Thanksgiving morning and it was a perfect fall breakfast. Definitely keeping this recipe and making again
How would you recommend reheating from frozen? In the past the waffles I’ve attempted to microwave turn out soggy and rubbery. Could these be reheated in the oven or toaster?
Thanks!
The toaster is a great option! 🙂
Hello. I was wondering if you would be able to make these in the oven? I bought the new waffle stick pan from pampered chef and thought about making the kids waffle sticks with this delicious recipe? Any tips??
If you want to say Holiday season, try this little alteration. Change the liquid to 1 cup of buttermilk and 1/4 cup of eggnog. My children always request this variation when they come home for the Holidays.
Do you think I could substitute oat milk for the buttermilk to make these dairy free? What would you suggest?
