Okay, so it wasn't just me! Definitely needed a longer baking time, and I kept re-checking the recipe to see if I'd missed the spices.

Re: Toasty Pumpkin Waffles. They turned out very soft in the middle. I added 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice to the batter and 1 tsp. of maple nut extract. Or, you could use vanilla extract. I tried some without the spice and extract and they were bland. They needed perked up.

When I first made these, they turned out really soft. I baked them as long as the waffle iron instructed, but I found they worked better when I cooked them for 2-3 minutes longer then directed! Very good the second time.
