Homemade Pumpkin Waffles Recipe
These homemade pumpkin waffles are amazing! You get a hint of the pumpkin — it’s not overpowering, but you know it’s there. They are a little spicy thanks to the cinnamon and cloves in the pumpkin pie spice, and super delicious thanks to the bananas. Don’t forget a big drizzle of real maple syrup to finish them off!
