Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Waffles

Up until 5 years ago, I had absolutely no Thanksgiving Traditions of my own. No grandma’s pumpkin pie recipe to put a twist on, no after-turkey game day rituals to prep for, no hand-me-down stretchy pants to stay warm in. Yup, I was Thanksgiving-traditionless!

You see, I didn’t grow up celebrating Thanksgiving. So, when a college friend asked me to spend my first Thanksgiving with her and her family in Ohio, I was thrilled – and fascinated! First there was her aunt’s twist on her grandma’s pumpkin pie, then there was the after-turkey game of “pile-up” followed by caroling in snowy driveways in hand-me-down warm, stretchy pants! Even though my first ever pumpkin pie was almost squeezed out of me in that human-pile-up, and, I needed MOTRIN® IB after all the times I fell down in those snowy driveways, I decided I was going to live off of other people’s Thanksgiving traditions for eva!

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Waffles

At least… that was until five years ago…

You see, around five years ago on Thanksgiving eve, I, quite unconsciously, gave birth to my own Thanksgiving Tradition. Yes, five years ago, on Thanksgiving eve I began planning and scheming …about what color I was going to paint my kitchen! And, thus it began. Every year since, every Thanksgiving eve, I have found myself gathering together paint and brushes, masking off baseboards, taking switch plates off and …painting.

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Waffles

Last year, I painted my high-ceilinged family room. This year, I painted my daughter’s nook-and-crannied, bathroom. While I’m prepping, I psych myself into painting the whole house. I think my head think’s am in my 20s. But…every year after I’ve finished one room, my body reminds me that my 20s are long, long gone! I pull out my winter toolkit stocked with Extra Strength TYLENOL® and MOTRIN® IB from Target to help ease my achy joints and muscles, and set brushes and paint aside – until the following Thanksgiving eve! Is it just me and my old self or does the cold really make “the ouches” more pronounced?

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Waffles

Over these past five years, part of my Thanksgiving-Tradition of painting also includes my post-painting breakfast! Usually it is an indulgent one – like these Pumpkin Pie Waffles! These are not my usual low-sugar, butter-free waffles. These are loaded with brown sugar, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, full fat coconut milk, eggs and butter! Pretty much all the elements of pumpkin pie. Of course, I had to throw in some ground up quick oats and protein-packed chia seeds to give these a bit of a nutritional kick – and help with recovery. While these waffles are indulgent ones, they are still lactose-free and gluten-free provided you use certified GF oats!

So, this 2016, what were some of your favorite Thanksgiving traditions?
And – does, your winter toolkit happen to have Extra Strength TYLENOL® and MOTRIN® IB in it for when “the ouches” hit?

    I love the idea of pumpkin pie waffles! Sounds like an amazing new Thanksgiving tradition. Most of my family’s Thanksgiving traditions have been created over the years and we add new ones all the time, and they’re usually all about food! Awesome recipe!

    I don’t paint — that’s what I have a husband for. I do cook — and these waffles will be on our table soon – they look delicious!

    These waffles look so, so good! I love pumpkin pancakes, so I’m not sure why I didn’t consider pumpkin waffles. I have half a can of pumpkin puree left after some Thanksgiving baking, so now I know what to do with it!

    Oh man, these waffles look amazing, Shashi! I would gladly sign up for Team Painting if it involved a stack of these waffles for breakfast! So what color did you go with for Lil Shashi’s bathroom? We’ve painted a couple of times, but man is it tedious work. I totally get the need for stocking up on the Motrin! Funny story: Robbie is getting his molars in, and he’s been a bit grumpy (imagine that!) Infant Motrin is the only thing that will make him feel better. 🙂 Although I haven’t tried feeding him a stack of these waffles yet…I am certain that would make me feel better!

    That so funny! Painting at Thanksgiving. Well, at least your productive, right 😉 Now, you’re making me think I want to paint. It definitely does refresh a room<—-see, now I'm convincing myself, lol 😀 And there's no better way to treat yourself than with these waffles the next day for brekky! Love that you've added chia seeds in there for extra protein and nutrition. I bet this would be awesome for dinner too with chicken. I first discovered chicken-n-waffles when hubby and I took a trip to Vegas one year and have been hooked since. Can't wait to try yours. They look so good! Your certainly not Thanksgiving traditionless now, my friend! Hope you're having a wonderful week!

    Shashi — I LOVE your Thanksgiving painting tradition. I remember when you were painting that family room last year. And this year you went all out with your daughter’s bathroom. Thank goodness for these delicious pumpkin waffles AND Motrin to get you through. (Funny I was just looking at waffle makers online just before coming to your site. I’m thinking of gettting one for the family for Christmas because ours broke a few years ago and everyone loves waffles so much. Your recipe would be a great way to break in that new waffle maker I’m thinking.) I think I’m in my 20’s too and do way too much. Glad I don’t have to slow down. YET. I don’t know about the after-turkey game of pile-up and truthfully, I’m not sure that I WANT to know. Ha ha. I like to let the turkey tryptophan take full effect with a glass of white. Have a wonderful week my friend. XO

    My family has tons of holiday traditions, that sadly I have not incorporated into my own holidays. I should, but it’s kind of hard to bust out all the stops and keep big traditions alive when it is just Boy and I.. and our dog. 😉 But this year I’m going to make an honest effort to AT LEAST decorate the house.. which is one step up from last year!! Lol. Anyways, I am a HUGE fan of waffles! Seriously, is there anything better than weekend brunch involving waffles? I think not! And these waffles are just perfect for this time of year Shashi!! Need to add these to our weekend rotation! Cheers, friend! xo

    Dear Shashi, I love your own little Thanksgiving tradition. I have the traditional traditions, if you know what I mean. The turkey and all its trimmings, and lots of pies! I start my cooking 48 hours before the big day but I still always find myself rushing about the morning of…thank goodness for motrin!

    These pumpkin pie waffles are a new tradition I can get behind…what a great way to start off the holiday morning. They sound fantastic and I know the family would love them. xoxo

    So I saw these on FB the other and I just gawked. Then drooled. Then gawked again. Just sayin’. Shashi, you know I love all the pumpkin pie flavored things… but add that to waffles and I’m beyond sold! Okay, this just made me spit out my coffee, I was laughing so hard: “my first ever pumpkin pie was almost squeezed out of me in that human-pile-up” Also, painting as a Thanksgiving tradition is awesome! I love how you’re always coming up with creative ways to get in the festive spirit! Hand me a paint brush to help ya and um… some of these waffles? 😉 Happy almost weekend my friend! xo
