21 Day Fix Pumpkin Spice Waffles

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups of gluten free rolled oats

• 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk

• .5 cup of water

• 1 tsp of pure vanilla extract

• 2 tsp of maple extract

• 2 large eggs

• 2 cups of pumpkin

• 2 tsp of cinnamon

• 1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice

• 1 tsp nutmeg

• 1 tsp of baking powder

• 1 tsp coconut oil

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat waffle maker and spray with non-stick cooking spray.

2. Blend all ingredients in a blender until almost smooth.

3. If you are following the 21 Day Fix meal plan, it may be best to measure out the batter into four equal portions so you know the exact portion size.

4. Pour batter into waffle maker and cook. I cooked mine on the highest setting and cook 5-6 minutes per side. Mine are fairly crispy when finished.

5. Enjoy with fruit or peanut butter!

I make this batter ahead of time and let it thicken up overnight before I use. Not something you have to do, but I love the texture of the waffles! And be forewarned, this batter does get THICK when it sits overnight to the point where I have to spoon the batter out and onto the waffle maker, it does not pour. 

If you are following the 21 Day Fix meal plan, these count as 1 yellow and .25 purple. This recipe serves 8, so the number of waffles it makes depends on the size of your waffle maker. My batch made 8 waffles, so one waffle is equal to the 1 yellow and 1/4 purple.  The serving for my waffle maker was 1/2 cup of batter for each waffle.
