These pumpkin spice waffles are the perfect fall dessert – serve with vanilla ice cream, hazelnuts and caramel sauce.
‘Tis the season to be obsessed with all things pumpkin. From pumpkin lattes to pumpkin soup, to carving Halloween Jack-o’-lanterns, I am in the throes of a orange-hued love affair. These Pumpkin Spice Waffles are the latest in my current campaign to add pumpkin to anything edible and they are absolutely fabulous. Serve them with maple syrup for an indulgent brunch or loaded with vanilla ice cream for dessert and enjoy a plateful of Autmn-y goodness.
And let me introduce you to our latest waffle maker – this may just be the best one yet. The Sage No-mess Waffle does what it says on the tin – and a whole load more. The mess is obliterated by the addition of a moat which catches any batter spillages (and who would not want a waffle maker with a moat?!). This nifty little machine also has a browning dial so you can specify just how golden you want your waffles in the morning. It also produces beautifully crisp waffles and requires no greasing whatsoever. It is a little more expensive than the average waffle maker but well worth it – if you are a fan you should definitely add this to your Santa list.
I adapted my basic waffle recipe to create these Pumpkin Spice Waffles (the same batter also works for making pancakes). The addition of pumpkin purée is optional – you can just add the spices if you prefer – but for the real pumpkin experience go the whole hog.

I was sent a Sage No Mess Waffle maker to review. All opinions are my own.

It's amazing to me that I didn't post this ice cream last summer when I first made it. Well, I guess it's not that amazing because it truly is so good that it really won't last very long in your freezer. Deb Leclair

I often make waffles on a Sunday for breakfast with bacon and maple syrup, but these are the sort of waffles I could eat all day long! I love the addition of pumpkin and those lovely autumnal spices! x

I've been wanting to get a waffle iron for ages, but can't decide which one to choose. I actually quite like square waffles though…
It definitely is pumpkin season though….. We seem to be adding to everything right now. Great addition to waffles…. they look lovely and rich and warm!

It has been years since I last had waffles, I think it is high time I invested in a waffle iron! Yours will be the first recipe I try 🙂

These look so tasty Lucy. I love waffles and they're actually one of my favourite desserts. A restaurant I used to go to did amazing waffles with maple syrup, pecans a vanilla ice cream. I was in heaven! These pumpkin spice ones look divine.

Holy yum! These looks amazing and I love that they contain pumpkin, you can't beat it at this time of year.

Mmmm waffles! They are one of my absolute favorite things in the whole wide world…and your waffles look terribly tempting! I added a waffle maker to my christmas wishlist not too long ago and Sage has always been my favorite (and Lagrange too!).
I LOVE the pictures, couldn't be more perfect.
