Author Notes: These are actually pretty healthy. The pumpkin allows for a decrease in fat and flour while providing extra fiber and vitamin A than your standard waffle. A light drizzling of honey or maple syrup make for excellent finishers and let the pumpkin and spice flavors shine. —gabsimonelouise
