These pumpkin spice waffles are the perfect easy brunch! They’re fluffy, gluten free, and delicious with maple syrup or vanilla ice cream.

I’m pretty excited about pumpkin season y’all. I kind of feel ridiculous about the level of enthusiasm, but here we are.

It’s September 1st and I am ready to give you some fall-inspired dishes. I’ve got PLANS, you know? Pumpkiny plans.

Nevermind that it’s so hot and sweaty here that I’m running out this afternoon to buy some fans to cool me down… that’s besides the point.

Pumpkin spice is happening whether the temps cooperate or not.

Ingredients for Pumpkin Spice Waffles:

  • eggs
  • ghee (refined coconut oil or melted butter also works)
  • agave (honey or maple syrup is a good sub)
  • almond butter: I use natural almond butter. Any nut or seed butter works, the waffles may just take on more of that flavor.
  • vanilla
  • almond flour
  • baking powder
  • pumpkin spice
  • cinnamon
  • cloves

How to make gluten free pumpkin waffles:

Whisk together the eggs, ghee, agave, almond butter, and vanilla. Add the almond flour, baking powder, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and cloves. Mix it all up.

Grease your waffle iron and divide the batter into the four sections of the waffle iron.

Cook until the little light goes off and continue this process until all the waffle batter is done. It should make four waffles.

    These are tender on the inside with a nice light crunch on the outside
    The best waffles ever! I added bacon and extra cinnamon to bump up the WOW factor in this recipe
