Directions

Ready to make these mouthwatering waffles? Let’s do it!

Prep & Preheat. Preheat your waffle iron and grease it with nonstick spray or a very thin layer of oil. (Skip the cooking spray unless you want your waffle iron to look like a science experiment!)
Whisk The Dry Ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
Add The Wet Ingredients. Next, toss in the pumpkin, milk, maple syrup, eggs, ghee/oil, and vanilla to the dry mix. Whisk until everything is well blended.
Cook The Waffles. Scoop or pour the batter into your waffle iron, cooking according to your waffle maker’s instructions. (Typically, 1/3 or 1/2 cup of batter per waffle works—don’t go crazy and overfill!)
Repeat. Continue with the remaining batter until all waffles are cooked.
Store Leftovers. Stash any leftover waffles in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer. Follow reheating instructions below!

FAQs

Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?
Coconut flour doesn’t work as a 1:1 substitute; you’ll need to tweak the recipe if you want to go down that path.

How do I make these waffles ahead of time?
You can mix the dry ingredients in advance and store them in an airtight container. When ready to cook, just add the wet ingredients!

Can I freeze the waffles?
Absolutely! Freeze them in a single layer, then transfer to a bag. Thaw and reheat when you’re ready for your pumpkin fix!
