Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Waffles are cozy, spiced waffles made with real pumpkin purée, warm fall spices, and melty chocolate chips. Crispy on the outside and fluffy inside, they’re perfect for a comforting breakfast or festive brunch.

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger (optional)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin purée
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups milk (or buttermilk)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet or mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and brown sugar.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
  6. Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter.
  7. Pour batter into the waffle iron and cook until golden brown and crisp.
  8. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, or extra chocolate chips if desired.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
  • For extra spice, add a pinch of cloves or pumpkin pie spice.
  • Keep waffles warm and crispy by placing them on a wire rack in a 200°F (95°C) oven until ready to serve.
  • Great for freezing—just toast to reheat from frozen.
