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.

this makes me want to get a waffle iron. these are divine. i think i will make them into pancakes in the meantime. love your recipes, Lindsay!
Hi Lindsay,
I love making waffles for my family, and this recipe does not only look easy, but I can so smell the warmth goodness of these waffles just by looking at these pics! Beautiful!! It is a recipe to share!
Ok these are delish! Due to my lack of waffle maker, I added a few tablespoons of almond milk to thin the batter up a bit and made pancakes. I also subbed coconut oil for the ghee, and they still tasted great! Thanks for making me feel like fall even though it’s still very much summer in Texas!
Yay!! I love the idea of making them as pancakes!! Definitely need to try them 🙂
I have become so obsessed with your recipes and YouTube videos! These were SO GOOD! My waffle iron made 3 large ones and one small one. My 10 month old ate the small one and my VERY PICKY significant other ate 2 (seriously he lives off white bread and cheese). I can’t wait to make these again soon!
AH! This seriously made my day!! I’m so happy you guys are liking the recipes! My son is super picky so I figure if he gives the thumbs up I have a winner recipe. Enjoy them!! xo
These are DELICIOUS!!! And they make the house smell so good. Huge hit with the whole family, teens included. Made them for breakfast today and kept me full til dinner. The only modification I made was to use half the ghee and they were perfect!
Yay!! I’m so happy you guys loved them!! xo
