Keto Pumpkin Pie Waffles (low-carb, grain-free, sugar-free)

These low-carb waffles are perfect for fall. They are soft inside and slightly crispy on the outside. Packed with protein and flavour, these waffles are ideal for breakfast.

Adding pumpkin purée to these waffles makes them moist and soft, while keeping them low in carbs. These delicious keto waffles taste like your favourite pumpkin pie.

If you don't have a waffle maker, you can use the mixture to make delicious low-carb pancakes!

Step-by-step

Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them with melted coconut oil, Erythritol and optionally a few drops of stevia.
Add the pumpkin puree (you can even make your own pumpkin purée) and mix until smooth.
Pour in the cream (or coconut milk) and mix well.
Add protein powder, coconut flour, baking soda and pumpkin pie spice mix.
Preheat the waffle maker, typically, in the closed position. Do not pour the batter in until it's hot. Pour in about ¹/₄ cup (60 ml) per waffle.
Close the waffle maker and cook for a minute or two. The exact time depends on the waffle maker.
Serve on its own or with whipped cream. Store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Just wondering how much of a nutritional difference using the extra coconut flour in place of the protein powder? Anxious to try this.
1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor1 January 2020
  Hi Arena, that will be insignificant as it's just 1 tablespoon (less than 0.5 g net carbs per waffle). I hope you like it!
Dani14 March 2016
Just wondering what can be used in place of the eggs?
1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor3 April 2016
  You can try "flax egg" or "chai egg" instead. You can make them by mixing flax meal or chia seed meal with water: 1 tbsp flax/chia sees meal + 3-4 tbsp water for every egg.

I love this recipe! But is it possible not to include stevia or Erythritol? I don't eat sweetners 😊
1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor12 November 2015
  I think it depends on you palate. Pumpkin is mildly sweet so it might be ok, especially with all the spices 😊

Hi Martina, I have noticed different pumpkins have different carbs values etc, if I was trying to stay as low carb as possible should I worry about what type of pumpkin purée I make, e.g butternut pumpkin purée, I know quarter cup isn't excessive, I suppose I could take out the pumpkin and spices for a simple waffle version and make pancakes out of them, I know they wouldn't be the same though!!
1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor3 April 2015
  Yes you can do that but I wouldn't worry too much. 1/4 cup of pumpkin puree will be almost the same for different types of winter squash. Or just use the pumpkin spice mix and add some coconut milk or coconut oil if the mixture is too dry 😊

Did I miss where to add the protein powder? I don't see it on the directions, just the ingredients.
1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor1 March 2014
  Hi Jaime, it' where it says to add the coconut flour (coconut flour is a possible substitute) - I'll add it now, thanks 😊
  1. Jaime2 March 2014
    I assumed that's where it went, but thank you just the same for updating the recipe. I made these last night and then again today, they're so good! I just discovered your site a few days and I love all the recipes I've tried (I bought the ebook). I've been doing keto for 6 months and this a godsend.
    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor2 March 2014
      Thank you Jaime! If you ever find something missing, please, let me know. I'm glad you like my book 😊
Stinson23 November 2013
These are FABULOUS! We used all coconut flour as we didn't have the protein powder and they worked great! Thanks for the options making them user friendly to all! Love your recipes and your blog! Thank you for making this lifestyle "livable"!
1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor3 November 2013
  Thank you so much, I really appreciate your words! 😊
Breasy9022 October 2013
Am I missing something? The recipe says baking soda but I don't see where to add it?
1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor22 October 2013
  Good point! Thank you for telling me - I'll add it now.
Jimster9 October 2013
I don't have a waffle maker, can I make pancakes out of these?
1. KetoDietAuthor9 October 2013
  Sure you can 😊 I didn't have a waffle maker until later this summer and used to make these as pancakes. You can make 2 big pancakes or many small. I always make small pancakes - they are easier to handle (1/2-1 ladle per pancake).
  1. Jimster9 October 2013
    I made them this morning as pancakes, My girlfriend and I loved them. Thanks so much for the recipe, we are now feeling the fall spirit!
    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor13 October 2013
      Thank you for the support and kind words!
Toby8 October 2013
I only had chocolate whey protein, so did it this morning with coconut flour only (it works with 2-3 tablespoons. Thanks!
