pumpkin waffles

i thought it was a little unfair to talk about pumpkin waffles and homemade buttermilk syrup and not share the recipe.  you may be past the pumpkin craze and bringing on the peppermint for december.  if so, you can file this away for next fall.

Pumpkin Waffles

Mix Together:

2 cups flour

2 T baking powder

1 T cinnamon

1 T sugar

½ t nutmeg

¼ t ground coriander

¼ t salt

Add:

4 egg yolks

1 cup pumpkin

1 T vanilla

1 ½ cup milk

¾ cup margarine melted

Beat 4 egg whites till stiff peaks and fold 

into batter.  Then throw them into your waffle iron.

Buttermilk Syrup

½ cube butter

½ cup buttermilk

1 cup sugar

1 t light corn syrup

Bring to a boil and reduce heat.

Add:

1 t baking soda

1 t vanilla.

 It will bubble up, so make sure you use a large 

enough pan to allow for this. 

Stir over low heat until it caramelizes.  

ENJOY!
