Fall is in the air, and the pumpkin recipes are filling the blogisphere! Today is also my good friend Julie's birthday, and we are throwing her A Very Pumpkin Birthday Party!!!
I met Julie, the blogger behind This Gal Cooks! when I stumbled across Marvelous Mondays link party. She is also the ring leader behind our facebook blogging group, that started with a Giveaway last spring. We all had so much fun working together, that we kept the group going after the giveaway ended.
My contribution to this Very Pumpkin Party, is these delicious Pumpkin Waffles. They are light, and fluffy and perfect on a fall morning. I kept them simple, by sprinkling them with toasted pecans and drizzling them with pure maple syrup...Yum!
How to make Pumpkin Waffles:
Combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves in a large bowl. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, beat pumpkin, egg yolks, oil, and milk together until smooth.
Add the dry ingredients and mix just until well incorporated. Set aside.
In a third bowl, whip egg white until stiff.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the pumpkin mixture.
Heat waffle iron, and cook waffles as per manufacturer's instructions.
Remove from waffle iron, and place on a wire cooling rack set on a baking sheet. Place cooked waffles in a warm oven until ready to serve.
Serve with warm maple syrup and toasted pecans.
Enjoy!!

I need a waffle iron so I can make these! I keep telling myself I'm going to get one but at the same time I keep telling myself that I don't need anymore kitchen gadgets! I love these waffles, Lisa! Ah, if only I could have a plate of them right now! Thank you so much for making these for my birthday celebration! 🙂 Have a great day!

Yummy Yum! My husband is a HUGE pancake/waffle fan. I usually don't go for them...UNLESS...they have something special like pumpkin or blueberries in them. Then I'm all over that. These look awesome!

What a great way to celebrate Julie's birthday, with pumpkin, pumpkin, and more pumpkin! Love the waffles, Lisa. We're on the same wavelength, because I just posted pumpkin waffles yesterday too. 🙂 I love that you used coconut milk. I know your lactose intolerant, but still! I love the stuff.
