Syrup
3 Tablespoons butter
5 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 Tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 cups UNFILTERED apple cider
Waffles
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large eggs, separated
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 cups buttermilk (I always just add 3 Tablespoons lemon juice to 2% or whole milk and let sit for 5 minutes since I never have real buttermilk on hand)
3/4 cup canned pumpkin
cooking spray
In a medium saucepan, whisk together 3/4 teaspoons cinnamon, the sugar, and cornstarch. Add apple cider and 5 teaspoons lemon juice and whisk to combine. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook, stirring often, 2 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in 3 tablespoons butter.
Make waffles: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon. In another medium bowl, whisk egg yolks until pale yellow; whisk in oil, buttermilk, and pumpkin.
In bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the balloon whisk, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add egg yolk mixture to flour mixture, stirring to combine. Gently fold in egg whites just until blended.
Preheat a waffle iron and coat it with cooking-oil spray. Ladle 1 cup batter (or amount directed by waffle-iron maker) onto hot iron, spreading with a spatula, and cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes.
I found this recipe on recipezaar.com. My friend Tifani also has an amazing recipe that calls for bisquik. You can find a link to her blog which features the recipe on my personal blog (workinmamaworkinit.blogspot.com). Click on "Hurricane Bait" under my favorite blogs list.
This is a new favorite at our house. The apple cider syrup is so aromatic and the pumpkin waffles are sweet with just the right hint of spice. We like to make this for dinner.
Enjoy! -S
