Instructions

Preheat the waffle iron and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Separate the eggs, placing the whites in a mixing bowl and yolks to the side. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Create a well in the center and add egg yolks, pumpkin puree, milk, vanilla, and vegetable oil. Whisk until almost smooth, leaving some lumps.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter until no streaks remain, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions, cooking until golden brown on both sides.
Serve warm with butter, maple syrup, and your choice of toppings.

Notes

For added flavor, try mixing in chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter.
Ensure to beat the egg whites thoroughly for fluffier waffles.
Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best taste.
