Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Pumpkin pie spice
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted and cooled

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your pizzelle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together using a whisk or hand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Mix in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the melted and cooled butter until fully incorporated, creating a smooth batter.

Step 7

Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of batter (depending on the size of your pizzelle maker) onto the center of the preheated plates.

Step 8

Close the pizzelle maker and cook for 30-60 seconds, or until the pizzelles are golden brown and crisp.

Step 9

Use a spatula or tongs to carefully remove the pizzelles and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 10

Serve the pizzelles as-is or dust them lightly with powdered sugar for a festive touch.
