Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup coconut sugar
  • 3 Tbsp arrowroot or tapioca starch
  • 1 cup coconut flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp allspice
  • ½ tsp freshly grated nutmeg
  • 5 eggs separated
  • 1 cup full fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup pumpkin purée
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 4 Tbsp coconut oil melted

Method
 

  1. Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Oil with coconut oil if desired (not necessary though).
  2. In a small bowl, mix the sugar, starch, flour, baking powder, salt and spices with a whisk until all lumps are annihilated and all the ingredients are well mixed.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the egg yolks, coconut milk, pumpkin purée, vanilla and cider vinegar. Whisk until combined, then slowly whisk in the melted coconut oil.
  4. In another bowl (holy bowls Batman!), beat the egg whites with an electric mixer (with whisk attachment) until stiff peaks form.
  5. Dump the dry ingredients into the wet and mix. Fold in the egg whites. Keep folding until everything is well mixed.
  6. Spoon onto waffle maker and remove when done.
  7. Serve with butter, whipped cream (SACRILEGE!), berries, maple syrup, plain, with yogurt (DAIRY!), coconut butter or Aunt Jemima (just kidding!)...
