Ingredients

1 cup rolled oats (100 grams)
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
pinch of black pepper (just a pinch!)
2/3 cup pumpkin puree (160 grams)
2 large eggs
1/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste
oil, butter, or nonstick spray, for cooking
for topping - butter, greek yogurt, berries, sliced bananas, pecans, maple syrup, chocolate chips, nut butter, cinnamon…

Instructions

Blend your oats. Add rolled oats to your blender and blend for 30-60 seconds until they are broken down into a flour-like consistency.
Combine your dry ingredients. Add processed oats, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, salt, and black pepper to a small bowl and mix well.
Mix your wet ingredients. In a separate medium bowl, add the pumpkin puree, eggs, milk, honey, and vanilla bean paste, and whisk to combine. Add your dry ingredients to your wet and stir until just combined. Try not to overmix. Let the mixture sit while you heat your waffle iron.
Make waffles. Grease the waffle iron with a little butter, oil, or cooking spray. Make sure to grease both sides. Pour batter into your waffle iron (the amount will depend on the size you are using) and cook until crispy and golden brown. You may have to make them in batches depending on how big your waffle maker is. Make sure to grease it each time.
Enjoy! Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
