Pumpkin Spice Waffles

This year my mom asked for a waffle maker for her birthday. She doesn't usually eat waffles, so she's never purchased a waffle maker, but for some reason this year was the year of the waffles. lol.

So, for Mother's Day, I made Pumpkin Spice Waffles for her and boy, were they delicious. If I do say so myself. lol They were also SUPER easy!



Here is what you need:
  • Waffle mix (we used the suggested serving size for 4 which actually ended up making more than that; we also used the store brand that is also good to use to make pancakes)
  • 2 tbs pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tsp vanilla
Here is what you do:
  • Make the waffle mix with either water or milk, whatever the box calls for
  • Add the pumpkin spice and the vanilla
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes; this is a good time to heat up your waffle maker
  • Add a little batter to the waffle maker and cook according to the timing of your own waffle maker
  • Serve with warm syrup and butter OR powdered sugar and raspberry jam
You could also change out the pumpkin pie spice and vanilla and make a savory waffle with garlic powder and onion powder. Or, you could even add chili powder or taco seasoning for a Mexican flair. Then add hearty, meaty toppings instead. Doesn't that sound delicious? I may just have to try it and post the results.
