Spiced Pumpkin Waffles

In my search for something different and wonderful, I happened upon a link for this  recipe (original found at Chocolate on My Cranium).  What I have here is my version with a couple of changes and doubled (I like to make and freeze them)


Spiced Pumpkin Waffles 

* 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour  (or I may use *all* whole wheat)
* 6 teaspoons baking powder
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 2 teaspoon cinnamon
* 2 teaspoon nutmeg
* 2 teaspoon ground ginger
* 1 pinch salt
* 4 eggs, separated
* 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
* 1 14-16  oz. can pumpkin puree
* 3 1/3 cups milk (your preference.  I use coconut almond milk)
* 4 TBL olive oil

* Spray oil (such as Pam or the equivalent)
Directions
  1. Mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt in a medium bowl. 
  2. Separate eggs. Pour egg whites into a small bowl and whip until fluffy and white. 
  3. In a second larger bowl, add egg yolks, sugar, pumpkin, milk, and oil. Beat well. 
  4. Gently fold the flour mixture into the wet mixture and mix well 
  5. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites.
  6. Bake according to your waffle iron directions. These come out a nice golden brown. 
  7. Serve with maple syrup or honey butter.
