Ultimate Pumpkin Waffles

(1)
  • Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
1/4 cup light brown sugar3 Tbsp. cornstarch1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder1/2 tsp. salt1 3/4 tsp. cinnamon2 tsp. ginger1/4 tsp. cloves1/2 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg*2 large eggs1 cup 1% milk1 cup canned solid-pack pumpkin4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted and warm
Directions
1. Lightly oil the waffle iron with vegetable oil, and set it to the desired temperature.
2. Combine brown sugar and cornstarch in a large bowl. Whisk together to break apart the cornstarch. Add the remaining dry ingredients, and whisk to blend.
3. Separate eggs: yolks go in a medium sized bowl and whites get set aside in a smaller bowl.
4. Add pumpkin and milk to the egg yolks. Whisk to blend and set aside.
5. Whip egg whites with a hand mixer on high until stiff peaks form – about 1 1/2 – 2 minutes. Set aside.
6. Pour melted butter into the yolk/milk/pumpkin mixture. As you pour, whisk to combine.
7. Add the pumpkin mixture to the dry ingredients, and mix them together until just combined. A little lumpiness is fine. That will smooth out when the egg whites are added.
8. Slide the whipped egg whites out of the bowl and onto the mixture you just prepared. Gently fold them in until no white bits are obvious.
9. Once the waffle iron is heated, you’re ready to pour the batter! In my Presto FlipSide waffle maker, cook time is exactly 2 minutes 30 seconds.

    We tried this for breakfast this morning and it was great. Only thing missing was how much butter to use. - 12/19/15
