Our Pumpkin Spice Coffee Waffles bring all of that into your breakfast routine. This healthy, flavorful recipe is perfect for anyone who loves the cozy tastes of autumn but still wants a simple and nourishing start to the day.

Why You’ll Love These Waffles
Infused with coffee flavor: The brewed pumpkin spice coffee adds subtle roasted notes that enhance the pumpkin and spices.
Naturally sweet and tender: Pumpkin purée and coconut sugar keep the waffles moist and lightly sweetened.
Wholesome ingredients: Whole wheat or oat flour adds fiber, making this a breakfast that keeps you full and energized.
Customizable toppings: From Greek yogurt to maple syrup, nuts, or pumpkin seeds, you can personalize each waffle to your liking.
Whether you’re preparing a special weekend breakfast or looking to impress guests with a fall-inspired brunch, these Pumpkin Spice Coffee Waffles are both festive and approachable.
Here’s What You’ll Need
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (or oat flour for gluten-free)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon + nutmeg + ginger)
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar or maple syrup
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup unsweetened pumpkin purée
- ½ cup brewed Pumpkin Spice Coffee, cooled
- ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: 2 tbsp melted coconut oil for extra moisture
- Optional toppings: Greek yogurt, maple syrup, chopped nuts, pumpkin seeds, or a light glaze
AND HERE'S HOW TO MAKE IT...
- Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pumpkin pie spice, and coconut sugar.
- In a separate bowl, combine the egg, pumpkin purée, brewed pumpkin spice coffee, almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined—avoid overmixing for tender waffles.
- Lightly grease your waffle iron and pour in the batter. Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions until golden brown and crisp.
- Serve immediately with your favorite fall-inspired toppings, such as a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a sprinkling of nuts and pumpkin seeds.
Tips for the Perfect Fall Waffle
Choose your pumpkin spice coffee wisely: A medium roast will keep flavors balanced, while a darker roast will give a bolder, richer taste.
Adjust sweetness to your liking: If you prefer sweeter waffles, add a bit more coconut sugar or drizzle extra maple syrup on top.
Keep waffles crispy: Serve immediately or reheat in a toaster oven to retain a crisp exterior.
Make it extra special: Drizzle with a light Pumpkin Spice Coffee glaze (brewed coffee + powdered sugar) for an indulgent touch.
Why Pumpkin Spice Coffee Makes a Difference
Unlike traditional pumpkin waffles, these are infused with the aromatic warmth of brewed Pumpkin Spice Coffee, which deepens the flavor profile and complements the pumpkin purée and spices. The result is a cozy, café-style breakfast that’s both indulgent and wholesome.
