Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

¼ cup pumpkin puree
1 egg
1 teaspoon maple extract
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon almond flour
¾ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup heavy cream
½ teaspoon granulated erythritol sweetener (such as Swerve®)
¼ teaspoon maple extract
1 pinch ground cinnamon

Steps:

Preheat a waffle maker according to manual's instructions.
Whisk pumpkin puree, egg, and maple extract together in a small bowl. Stir in mozzarella cheese, almond flour, pumpkin pie spice, and baking powder.
Pour 1/2 of the batter onto the preheated waffle maker, spreading out from the center with a spoon (don't overfill or it will overflow). Close the waffle maker and cook until steaming stops and the chaffle reaches your desired doneness, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the waffle maker and repeat with remaining batter. Cool for several minutes while you prepare the whipped cream.
Pour heavy cream into a small bowl and mix with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce speed to medium, add sweetener and maple extract, and whip until stiff peaks form.
Place 1 chaffle on a plate, add a dollop of whipped cream, and sprinkle with cinnamon to serve.
