Over the holidays, I buy tons of canned pumpkin puree and inevitably it sits in the cabinet for months until I get around to using all of it. This recipe is for anyone who’s overstocked on pumpkin and wants to get rid of it in the yummiest way possible!

In our house, we’re all about serving these waffles for breakfast, but I decided to take them a step further. I like to make a big batch of waffles, enjoy half of them when I make them, freeze a few for future breakfasts (just pop them in the toaster oven when you need them) and make sandwiches with the remaining. Yes, sandwiches. Waffle sandwiches.

  3. This is definitely my new favorite waffle recipe! I was already using waffles like a sandwich w/ crem cheese & raisins between, but love the pumpkin!! I may try to us honey instead of brown sugar next time, as I usually have that on hand more. Thanks for a great website!!

  4. I made these a couple of weeks ago and my baby loves them. I did alter the recipe, I used a whole can of pumpkin instead of just a cup, and they turned out great. They freeze wonderfully, so I am able to take out just the right amount for a snake or a meal (I broke them into 4s after I froze them).

  5. Love this recipe! I’ve used it to make pancakes several times. My parents just gave me their old waffle iron, so I finally got to make them as waffles. Yum!

  7. Hi! Just curious what size waffle maker you use for your waffle sandwiches. There is a footnote on this recipe which says you use a Belgian waffle maker, however the photo doesn’t look like each side could be as thick as a Belgian waffle. Do you use two regular waffles or one Belgian waffle sliced in half? I just tried the latter and it was difficult to cut it without “holes” appearing on one side. Thanks!

  10. The only problem with these, is you cannot make them with hungry children, they eat them up way too fast! 🙂 Thanks!

  11. I just made these for dinner (with veggies on the side!), only I don’t own a waffle iron, so I cooked them like pancakes. It worked great and my kids are gobbling them up as I write this! Thanks for another great recipe!

  12. […] Since I still had a cup of pumpkin puree leftover from the muffins that I made the other day, I decided to make some pumpkin waffles.  It was dinner time when I decided to do this, so I figured I could just freeze and reheat them in the toaster for future lazy breakfasts.  Here’s my version of the Weelicious Pumpkin Waffles.
