Pumpkin Waffles with Cider Butter Syrup

Pumpkin Waffles with Cider Butter Syrup

  Today I said goodbye to fall, for my last pumpkin hoorah of the season, and putting my new waffle iron to use. These waffles are full of all of falls flavors, including the cider syrup they are topped with. The perfect   way to bid goodbye to November and hello to December and all of its peppermint mocha goodness. Dear December, i love you, but spiced fall flavors are my favorite. These literally only took me 10 minutes to whip and get on the plate, 1 bowl, 1 saucepan, and 1 waffle iron also mean very little dishes. Who likes to start there morning washing dishes anyway?

 Waffles

1 cup plus 2 tbs Flour

1 tsp. Cinnamon

1/2 tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice

1 tsp Baking Powder

 1/2 tsp. Salt

1 beaten egg

1 cup buttermilk

2 tbs melted butter

 Mix all ingredients together until well mixed. Do not overmix, a few lumps are ok. Heat Waffle iron and spray with non-stick spray.

Syrup

1/2 cup Sugar

1 tbs Corn Starch

1 tbs Corn Syrup

1 tsp Cinnamon

1 cup Apple Cider

4 tbs Butter

Put a saucepan on med-high heat, add the sugar, corn starch, and cinnamon, whisk until combined. Add the cider and whisk until thick and bubbly, take off the heat and stir in the butter until melted and combined. Top the waffles with the warm syrup and if your feeling spunky, maybe some fresh cinnamon whipped cream, as you can see from the photos, i must have been feeling spunky. May i also add, these are the 1st food photos i have taken with my new Nikon D7000 DSLR camera. Not bad for my first tr,y, I'm sure they will improve more with time, but I'm pretty tickled about these for the time being!
