This Vegan Pumpkin Waffle recipe has great pumpkin flavor and is full of warm sweet spices, making them a delicious addition to your fall breakfast recipe line up.
My family loves pumpkin waffles. While I am not vegan, I do have family members who are vegan as well as vegetarian, and for that reason, I am always finding ways to feed everyone without having to make two different recipes.
These vegan waffles are a result of that attempt. While we love my regular Pumpkin Spice Waffles, when my vegan family members are at the table, this waffle recipe fits the menu.
