Hello, fall! Or shall I say pumpkin spice season? 😊

Pumpkin spice makes everything nice! Overnight oats, pancakes, granola, cookies…

These Pumpkin Waffles are a treat for breakfast ( a healthy treat!) With 9 ingredients and 10 minutes, these waffles make the perfect autumn breakfast.

Pumpkin Puree

First, let’s talk pumpkin puree. For this recipe, you will need canned pumpkin puree. Not to be confused with the canned pumpkin pie. šŸ˜‰

I find that the organic version always tastes better, so if you have the option, go for organic.

And if you’re feeling fancy, you can make your own pumpkin puree from scratch. There’s just something magical about homemade recipes 😊

Flour combo

These Pumpkin Waffles are healthy! Instead of using whole wheat or white flour, I went with oat flour as a base.

Making oat flour is easy! All you need is oats and a blender or a food processor. Simply blend/pulse oats and voila – you’ll have fresh oat flour!

Oat flour can sometimes give baked goods a cardboard-like taste if you don’t add anything else to the batter like bananas, for example. This recipe does not have any bananas and the pumpkin puree won’t be enough to improve the taste.  

So what do we do? To avoid the cardboard taste, I found a super awesome trick! Are you ready for it?

It’s almond flour! Mixing almond flour with oat flour will give your baked goods a fluffy texture and will transform the taste!

Customize it

Ready for the fun part? I made these Pumpkin Waffles as a classic base recipe that you can customize if so wish. Here’re a few ideas of what you can add to the batter:

  • Chocolate chips
  • Chopped pecans
  • Pumpkin seeds
