EASY PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP WAFFLES
One of the easiest recipes I’ve ever made, and the addition of pumpkin spice just made it all the more perfect.
Sunday was my husband’s birthday! I spent the entire weekend planning a little party for him on Saturday night where we were able to eat some good food and spend time with good company. Since his real birthday fell on Sunday, I woke up and decided to make him some pumpkin chocolate chip waffle for his special day. I didn’t know where to begin since I had never attempted to make my own waffle batter, so I chose to just elaborate on the typical waffle mix and add my own flair of fall. I couldn’t get over how wonderful and easy it was to make, so I knew that I had to share it.
I’m a huge chicken & waffles lover, so I couldn’t resist adding a couple of chicken nuggets on top for myself.
- 1 and 1/2 cup of waffle mix (2-3 servings on box)
- 2/3 cup water
- 1/2 cup pumpkin
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- baking spray
- Heat and lightly spray Belgian or conventional waffle iron.
- Stir waffle mix and water with a wire whisk until smooth. Add pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, canola oil, and vanilla together. Let batter stand about 2 minutes and gently stir in chocolate chips.
- Pour about 2/3 cup of batter onto the waffle iron.
- Cook waffles about 4-5 minutes until golden brown (or follow the waffle iron manufacturer’s cooking instructions).
- *Add a few chicken nuggets & maple syrup and you just made the perfect chicken and waffles combination!
