Spiced Pumpkin Waffles with Chai
Published
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 - 10 minutes
Serves: Makes 5 waffles
Allergy Information: Gluten Free, Wheat Free, Lactose Free, Dairy Free, Vegetarian
Ingredients
- 200g buckwheat flour
- 1 tbsp. gluten free baking powder
- A pinch of Himalayan Salt
- 1.5 tsp. cinnamon
- 1 tsp. Coconut Sugar
- 1 tbsp. water
- 3 eggs
- 120g pumpkin puree
- 125ml Coconut Milk or plant milk of choice
- 90g Lucy Bee Coconut Oil, melted (plus extra for the waffle iron)
- 1 level tbsp. vanilla extract
Method
- Mix the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl (buckwheat flour, baking powder, Himalayan Salt, cinnamon) and set aside.
- In a cup, mix together Coconut Sugar and water to make coconut nectar. Set aside.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the pumpkin puree, Coconut Milk, Lucy Bee Coconut Oil, coconut sugar nectar and vanilla extract and whisk until fully combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir together. Set aside for 10 minutes, during which time the mixture will thicken as the flour absorbs the wet ingredients.
- Heat the waffle iron and use ½ tsp. melted Lucy Bee Coconut Oil to grease the irons, to prevent the waffles sticking.
- Pour enough waffle mixture to fill the centre of the mould, leaving ½ inch gap around the edge. Close to cook. Be careful when opening your waffle iron as a lot of steam will come out.
- Remove the waffles from the iron (using a spatula). These can be eaten straight away or, if leaving to cool, do not stack otherwise they can get soggy.
- Top with your chosen topping.
Enjoy!

Lucy & the family
A family story, rooted in gluten-free cooking
Lucy’s coeliac diagnosis changed the way the family cooked and ate. Reading labels, choosing ingredients carefully and preparing meals from scratch became second nature.
These recipes reflect our family’s love of natural, minimally processed ingredients and food to enjoy together, including recipes from our two coconut oil cookbooks.

Hi Jackie, they really are yummy! I’m not sure sorry, it is very old though. You can find alternatives though in-store or online :)
Looks lovely can’t wait to try, can I ask where the waffle iron is from?
