Notes

*Nutrition facts are estimated using a database. Exact nutrition information will vary depending on actual ingredients and amounts used.

The batter should still have some lumps after mixing.
Cooking time will depend on the waffle iron used as well as what heat setting the waffle iron is set to.
Use canned pumpkin for this recipe, not pumpkin pie filling.
Don't mix the oil in sooner than the recipe calls for.
Be sure to follow the manufacture instructions for your waffle iron. I made the mistake of not doing that and completely ruined my first batch of waffles in my new waffle maker ;)
