Perfect Pumpkin Spice Waffles

The pumpkin pie protein passes the taste test, but fares a bit less well in other regards.

Recipe Summary Perfect Pumpkin Spice Waffles

The perfect waffles for fall or when you're craving that pumpkin and spice taste! However, my family requests this recipe year-round.

Ingredients | Pumpkin Spice Protein Powder

4 large eggs, separated

1 pint buttermilk, shaken vigorously

1 cup canned solid-pack pumpkin

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

⅓ cup packed light brown sugar

2 ¼ teaspoons baking powder

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon ground ginger

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground cloves

cooking spray

Directions

Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.

Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak.

Beat egg yolks, buttermilk, pumpkin, and butter together with a whisk in a large bowl until smooth; add flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger, salt, and cloves. Stir the mixture with the whisk just until you have a smooth batter.

Fold the egg whites into the batter just until combined.

Prepare cooking surfaces of your waffle iron with cooking spray. Ladle about 2/3 cup batter into the prepared iron and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes.

Waffle irons come in many varieties. Consult the manufacturer directions for best guidance on batter amounts and cooking times.
