Equipment

  • 1 waffle maker

Ingredients

Dry Mix:

  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Wet Mix:

  • 1 cup shaken buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 6 tablespoons neutral oil
  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/2 cup sugar

Instructions

To Make the Dry Mix:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, cornstarch, pumpkin pie spice, salt, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

To Make the Wet Mix:

  • In a large measuring cup, measure out the buttermilk. Whisk in the pumpkin puree, oil, melted butter and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until barely combined. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, using a hand-mixer, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the sugar and continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the batter until just combined.
  • Cook the batter according to your waffle iron’s instructions. I cooked mine for about 3 minutes. Repeat until you’ve worked your way through the batter. Serve with maple syrup and butter.
  • Serves 4
