Fabulous Pumpkin Waffles

I made these waffles this morning and we both loved them!!

1/4 c light brown sugar
3 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 1/4 Flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 3/4 tsp cinnamon
1 to 2 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp grated nutmeg
2 large eggs separated
1 cup buttermilk
1 1/4 cup pumpkin
1 c chopped pecans
4 Tbsp melted butter
Warm the waffle iron.
Combine brown sugar and cornstarch, whisk together. Add remaining dry ingredients and pecans.
Separate eggs: add pumpkin and milk to yolks. Whisk together, set aside.
Whip egg whites until stiff peaks.
Add milk mixture to dry ingredients mix well. Fold in egg whites gently.

Cook in waffle maker. These will not be real crusty, and take a little extra time to cook.
Serve with syrup and whip cream!!! Makes 6-7 round waffles.
Enjoy :)
