Hi guys!

Happy Saturday! I lovee making breakfast on Saturday’s. It’s the only day Trevor and I really have time to relax and enjoy our morning. He’s much better at the relaxing than me. 🙂 But lucky for the both of us, I like getting up and moving first thing. So I love getting up and making a nice big breakfast! These waffles are the perfect Saturday breakfast treat, especially for Fall.

I’m calling them Pumpkin Pie Waffles because they are a very soft waffle it just makes me think of pie. I don’t know I’m weird, but these are amazing! They don’t have a super strong pumpkin flavor, but it’s definitely there. So if you don’t like pumpkin that much, I bet you’ll still like these! Also, the pumpkin spice I’m using really adds a delicious warming aspect.

One ingredient you might find weird is the vegan mayonnaise. I know, mayonnaise in waffles? What are you doing Emily? But trust me! Adding a little bit of the vegan mayonnaise just adds a bit more moisture to these gluten free waffles. Creating a very soft and pillowy (is that a word?) texture.

By the way, I’m using The Real Pantry’s Pumpkin Pie Spice again! It’s so incredible.

Serves: 2-4 Prep Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 9 minutes

Ingredients

1 cups basic gluten free flour – I always keep a big container already mixed on hand. For 6 cups: 4 cups superfine brown rice flour, 1 1/3 cup potato starch and 2/3 cup tapioca starch
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice – I’m using The Real Pantry’s (see a link above)
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
2 tablespoons cane sugar
1 tbs coconut sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons soy free margarine – Earth Balance or Smart Balance work well
3/4 cup almond milk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1 tablespoon vegan mayonnaise – Earth Balance or Follow Your Heart work well
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

1. Spray your waffle maker and get it preheating.
2. Whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, xanthan gum, cane sugar, coconut sugar, baking powder and salt.
3. Melt your margarine and let cool.
4. Whisk together almond milk, apple cider vinegar, pumpkin puree, vanilla and melted margarine.
5. Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix with a whisk or spoon until just combined.
6. Cook in your waffle maker according to your waffle maker’s instructions. Based on my waffle maker’s temp, cook time was about 9 minutes. Gluten free waffles need to cook a little bit longer than gluten full waffles.
7. Enjoy!
