Pumpkin season is upon us people! I am ready for all things Fall, bring on the pumpkin flavored everything. I love to use Libby’s brand canned pumpkin for all my pumpkin recipes. It is easily accessible at most stores. These waffles are not lacking in those delicious warm Fall flavors. I love to top them with warm sautéed cinnamon apples, toasted pecans, and pure maple syrup. These Paleo Pumpkin Spiced Waffles are grain, gluten, dairy, and refined sugar free. They really hit the spot for weekend breakfast or brunch.
I love to throw all my ingredients right into the blender to keep things easy. This also gets your batter super smooth. I like to use a Pumpkin Spice Blend to get that delicious pumpkin pie flavor. Do not forget to grease your waffle maker so the waffles do not stick.
These are amplified by topping them with sauteed cinnamon apples. Thinly slice an apple and sauté in 1 tsp of coconut oil and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon. Cook apples for 1-2 minutes. I also like to toast up my chopped pecans to add an additional layer of flavor. These waffles are so good and will not disappoint. These freeze well and also go great in a lunchbox for an easy snack.
