    Why You’ll Love This Recipe

    This vegan pumpkin waffle recipe is great for beginners—just mix, pour, and cook! I used non-dairy milk, such as oat milk, and coconut oil instead of butter in this recipe, which makes these waffles dairy-free.

    Pumpkin puree, which is rich in vitamin A and fiber, adds moisture and a soft texture to the waffles. The result is fluffy pumpkin waffles with crisp edges and bold pumpkin flavor.

    You can enjoy these vegan pumpkin waffles with a drizzle of maple syrup, cream, or fresh berries. It’s sweet, spiced, and ready for any cozy morning. It's also a fun take on both waffle recipes and fall desserts. Try this out and enjoy a delicious treat!

    Ingredients

    Listed below are all the ingredients you will need:

    • All-purpose flour
    • Oat milk (make your own with my easy recipe)
    • Pumpkin puree
    • Coconut oil
    • Organic pure cane sugar
    • Baking powder
    • Baking soda
    • Cinnamon
    • Salt

    See recipe card for quantities.

    Substitutions & Variations

    • Ingredient Swap
      Swap oat milk with almond milk or soy milk.
      Use maple syrup instead of sugar for a natural sweetness.
    • Variation
      Add ground nutmeg or ground cloves for more spice.
      Add vanilla extract if desired.
    • Mistake to Avoid
      Don’t overmix the batter! It will make the waffles dense.
    • Storage Tips
      • These waffles freeze well for up to 1 month.
      • Store leftovers in the fridge for 2–3 days.
      • Reheat in a toaster for the best texture.

    FAQ

    Can I add cinnamon to the waffle mix?

    Yes, you should be able to add cinnamon to the waffle mix, and then just follow the instructions on the package for adding any liquids or eggs.

    Can I mix pumpkin puree into pancake mix?

    Add your canned pumpkin puree for a Fall inspired touch then fold in your pumpkin pie spice. Together, with one mix, you can transform plain pancakes to pumpkin spice pancakes. Drizzle with pure maple syrup and enjoy with fresh berries or fruit of choice. Soft, fluffy, and irresistible.

    What does pumpkin puree do in baking?

    Not only does pumpkin purée act as a sweetener, a creamy moisturizer, and a fat substitute in everything from muffins to soup. It also tastes delicious in everything!

      Is it okay to not use baking soda? Just baking powder? Thanks Lainey!
