Let’s make some Paleo Pumpkin Waffles with Cinnamon Apples?
Step 1: Prepare cinnamon apples
To begin, prepare apples by chopping in bite size cubes and tossing with cinnamon. Then, melt 1 tsp coconut oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Next, toss apples in oil and cook for 5-7 minutes or until soft. While the apples cook, heat a waffle iron to medium heat and spray with a cooking oil spray like coconut oil.
Step 2: Prepare waffle batter
Then, in a mixing bowl whisk together eggs, pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup.
In a separate bowl combine coconut flour, salt, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice. Fold dry ingredients into wet and combine fully.
Step 3: Cook pumpkin spice waffles
Then, pour 1/4 cup of waffle batter onto the center of a waffle iron and allow to cook fully.
Repeat the step above until you use all of the batter – I usually get 5 small waffles.
Step 4: Enjoy!!
Enjoy immediately with warm apples over the waffle or store separately for meal prep
Can I make these healthy pumpkin spice waffles as a part of meal prep?
Yes! These waffles are actually a great option for meal prep. I like to store the cooked pumpkin waffles and cinnamon apples separately in the fridge.
Then, I reheat the waffles in the toaster and warm the apples on the stove top or in the microwave before combining the two. That way the waffles stay crisp!
The fully cooked waffles should be good in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

I want to taste these waffles!
What is the nutritional information for these waffles? Amount of protein, carbs, and fat content?
I will definitely make these again. As my first Paleo waffle, I think they were great! The apples with the pumpkin are a classic, fall flavour and delicious. I find the texture was a bit crumbly but I think that’s to be expected with coconut flour (?) but my only reason for four stars was I found them to stick to the waffle iron. The top half separated from the bottom half so the top came out beautifully crisp (and done) but I had to scrap the bottom half off of the iron into the plate. Will use more cooking spray next time and see if that helps.

Sorry they stuck together! Glad you’re willing to try again!
