Pumpkin waffles are the perfect way to celebrate fall! They are so good and easy to make too.
Most of the time we are in a hurry to rush out the door in the morning but every once in awhile we (usually Josh if I’m being totally honest) make pancakes or waffles. These pumpkin waffles are treat!
If you’ve read 30days for a bit, you know that I used to hate pumpkin when I was growing up. My mom made everything pumpkin and I just didn’t get it. But somehow as I grew older I started liking it more and more. I’ve now turned into her making pumpkin bread, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin cheesecake pumpkin bars and more.
So making pumpkin waffles during pumpkin season just seems appropriate!
