Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

2 tablespoons brown sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice (plus extra for garnish)

2 large eggs

1 cup canned pure pumpkin puree

1 cup buttermilk

1/4 cup vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Maple syrup and whipped cream for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Waffle Maker: Begin by preheating your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If necessary, lightly grease the surface with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

    Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Use a whisk to blend them thoroughly until there are no lumps remaining.

      Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, crack the two large eggs and beat them lightly. Then, stir in the pumpkin puree, buttermilk, vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil), and vanilla extract. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

        Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures: Gently pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, stir the two together until just combined—be careful not to overmix; the batter should maintain a few lumps for fluffy waffles.

          Cook the Waffles: Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle maker, approximately 1/2 to 2/3 cup, depending on your model. Close the lid and allow the waffles to cook as per your waffle maker instructions, until they turn a lovely golden brown and are crispy on the outside.

            Serve: Once cooked, carefully remove the waffles and place them on a plate. To keep them warm while you finish the remaining batter, place them in a low oven set to 200°F (95°C). Serve the waffles hot with a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, and an optional sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice for a festive touch.
