Gingerbread Waffles with Maple-Pecan Butter

Directions

Mix wet ingredients

In a large bowl, mix brown sugar, oil, granulated sugar, and molasses until sugars are coated. Add eggs one at a time, whisking after each.

Mix dry ingredients

In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, black pepper, allspice, clove, and salt.

Combine everything

Fold half the dry ingredients into egg mixture. Add half the milk and fold. Repeat with remaining dry ingredients and milk. Let batter rest 10 minutes at room temp.

Cook waffles

Heat waffle iron and spray with cooking spray. Pour a heaping 1/3 cup batter into each section. Cook until a shade darker and firm to touch. Transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining batter (makes 6-8 waffles).
