Ingredients

Scale

For the Spiced Pumpkin Waffles

  • 2 1/4 cups gluten free oats
  • 1/4 cup splenda brown sugar blend
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup lactose free milk (or whatever milk you’d like to use)

For the Vanilla Pecan Syrup

  • 1/3 cup roughly chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  1. To a food processor add gluten free oats. Blend until the oats turn into a flour or powder. About 3-5 minutes. You may need to stop the food processor and move the oats around a bit to make sure they all get chopped.
  2. Remove from processor and place in a large bowl. Then add Splenda brown sugar blend, baking powder, salt, ground cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir the dry ingredients together and set aside.
  3. To a medium bowl add, 3 eggs, pumpkin puree, coconut oil, vanilla extract and milk. Using a whisk, stir everything together.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Using a spatula combine the wet and dry ingredients until they are thoroughly mixed. Let sit for 2-3 minutes to let the oats soak up the liquid.
  5. Heat a waffle iron to high heat.
  6. Spray with cooking spray and pour 3/4 -1 cup of the pumpkin waffle batter into the waffle iron. Cook until crispy on the outside. About 3-4 minutes.
  7. While the waffles are cooking, add chopped pecans, maple syrup, and vanilla bean paste to a small saucepan. Stir and bring to a simmer.
  8. Remove from heat and top each waffle with syrup.
