-
1 tsp pumpkin spice mix
-
½ tsp cinnamon
-
¼ tsp salt

-
2 large eggs
-
⅓ cup pumpkin purée (unsweetened)
-
¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
-
2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil)
-
1 tsp vanilla extract

👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat the Waffle Maker
Heat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, baking powder, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and salt. Make sure everything is evenly combined and lump-free.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in pumpkin purée, almond milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Make the Batter
Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until a thick batter forms. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes to thicken slightly (this helps coconut flour absorb moisture).
5. Cook the Waffles
Scoop batter into the waffle maker (about ¼–⅓ cup per waffle depending on size).
Cook for 3–5 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
💡 Tip: Don’t open the waffle maker too early—keto waffles need extra time to firm up.
6. Serve & Enjoy
Serve hot with your favorite keto toppings!
