I like to serve these with maple syrup and the maple whipped topping from Aldi. Some sauted spiced cinnamon apples would be really good on top of these waffles or some homemade sugar-free applesauce. You can make these ahead of time and freeze them in one of those freezer storage bags. Then take them out and reheat them when ready to eat.

Pumpkin spice waffles can also be customized to your liking. You can add chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or whipped cream to make them even more special. You can also make them gluten-free by using a gluten-free flour blend.
Ingredients for Pumpkin Spice Waffles
- Self-rising flour is a type of flour that already contains baking powder and salt, which are essential ingredients in many baked goods.
- Sugar – I like to use real sugar with my recipes because sugar substitutes upset my stomach. If you wish to use a sugar substitute you can, just look up the conversions for it
- Pumpkin Pie Spice – is a blend of warm, aromatic spices that are commonly used in fall and winter baking. This popular spice mix typically includes cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and sometimes allspice. I have a recipe for homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice on my blog
- Milk – Dairy does not like me at all so I go for a lactose free milk such as Fairlife. It also has more protein in it.
- Pumpkin puree is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes, from sweet to savory.
- Apple sauce is a delicious and versatile food that can be enjoyed on its own or used as an ingredient in various recipes.
- Egg – The best type of eggs you can buy at the store are organic or free-range eggs, while others may prefer eggs from specific breeds of chickens

What to Serve with Pumpkin Waffles
What to serve with pumpkin waffles?
Pumpkin waffles are a delicious and seasonal breakfast treat that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. If you’re wondering what to serve with pumpkin waffles, there are plenty of options that can complement their sweet and spiced flavor.
One popular choice is to serve pumpkin waffles with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon or nutmeg. This adds a creamy, indulgent touch that pairs well with the waffles’ sweet, autumnal taste. Alternatively, you could serve them with a drizzle of maple syrup or honey for a simple yet satisfying breakfast. Sometimes instead of whipped topping I’ll use Cool Whip.
If you’re looking for a heartier option, consider serving pumpkin waffles with Air Fryer Bacon or sausage. You could also serve them with scrambled eggs or a breakfast hash for a more filling meal.
