Servings 5

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup + 2 tbsp full-fat buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie mix
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 135 grams flour 1 cup + 2 tbsps
  • 2 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • Nonstick spray avocado oil for the waffle maker
  • 6 tbsp pecans toasted and coarsely chopped

Instructions

  • Whisk the dry ingredients – flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger – in a large bowl.
  • In another bowl, combine the wet ingredients – pumpkin purée, eggs, milk, butter, and syrup.
  • Mix the wet into the dry just until combined. Don’t overmix! The batter will be a bit lumpy, but that’s totally fine
  • Gently fold in the toasted pecans
  • Heat your waffle iron and pour in the batter, cooking according to your waffle iron's instructions
  • Serve warm with butter and maple syrup. Or, if you’re feeling extra indulgent, add a dollop of whipped cream and an extra sprinkle of pecans on top!
