After awhile, every time I would make waffles in my previous waffle iron it would never bake evenly and would end up as a mushy mess. So for months I have been looking at all of these beautiful grain free waffle recipes on Pinterest and debating whether or not to buy a new Belgian Waffle Maker. Well, the other week I couldn’t take it any longer I just HAD to buy a new waffle iron. I knew my first waffle recipe was going to be a pumpkin one…what better way to enjoy the holiday season!
I ended up making one Pumpkin Waffle and it was a flop, but that didn’t discourage me. I went back to the drawing board and ended up with a perfect Paleo Pumpkin Waffle recipe. I’ll definitely be making these a lot more this holiday season. I also made a double batch so I could freeze the waffles. The next time I’m craving a waffle, I just have to throw the frozen waffles in a toaster and in no time I’ll have breakfast on the table.
