Ingredients
Scale
- 270g soft white wheat berries (weigh before milling)
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
2 ½ tsp pumpkin spice
2 eggs
1 ½ cups milk
¼ cup maple syrup
¼ cup brown sugar
3 TBSP avocado oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup pumpkin purée
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron to medium heat so it’s ready when the batter is mixed.
- Weigh and mill the wheat berries to create fresh, warm flour.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients (fresh‑milled flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin spice).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (eggs, milk, maple syrup, brown sugar, avocado oil, vanilla, and pumpkin purée).
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Fresh‑milled flour prefers a light hand.
- Cook the waffles according to your waffle iron’s manufacturer instructions.
- For serving all at once, place cooked waffles on a cooling rack inside a slightly warmed oven to keep them crisp without steaming.
