Pumpkin Spice Morning

Well readers, if you've read my blog at all you know how much I adore pumpkin everything: pumpkin candles and wax melts, pumpkin soap and shampoo, pumpkin cookies, oh, and of course, Pumpkin Spice Lattes more commonly referred to as PSL (shoutout to Starbucks for hooking it up every year). 

This morning I made pumpkin waffles and my own pumpkin spice creamer. While it is easier to buy pumpkin spice creamer from the store, the store bought creamers are packed full of artificial preservatives, flavors, colors and God knows what else. 

Pumpkin Spice Waffles

2 C pre-made waffle mix 

1 C canned pumpkin purée 

2 eggs 

1 C milk 

4 Tbsp vegetable oil

2 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice 

Cooking spray 

In a big bowl, whisk together ingredients until batter is combined. I prefer my waffle batter to be slightly thick, but you can always add more milk if you don't want your batter as thick. 

Spray your preheated waffle iron with cooking spray and pour about 1/3 C batter into each well of the waffle iron. Cook about 5 minutes. 

These waffles are soft and taste perfectly like pumpkin! Ah, the best fix for any pumpkin spice obsessor, such as myself. 

Pumpkin Spice Creamer 

2 C skim milk 

3 Tbsp pumpkin purée 

2 Tbsp maple syrup

1/2 Tsp vanilla extract 

2 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice 

Whisk together ingredients and pour into a sauce pan over medium heat. 

Heat the creamer until it is steaming NOT boiling. 

Pour into a mason jar and refrigerate. 

Enjoy your delicious creamer! 

This was the perfect pumpkin spice morning! Waffles, creamer and the first episode of American Horror Story season 6. Have a happy Sunday, readers!
