These Pumpkin Blender Waffles with Pumpkin Cream boast of fall flavors and are made in the BLENDER!! They are decadent, fluffy, and pumpkiny. Don’t make them without the Pumpkin Spice Cream… it’s melt in your mouth yum yum.
This body is aching from Death by Pullups yesterday at CrossFit. We did a 15 minute pull up set. The first 4 minutes we did pull-ups every 30 seconds in sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7…and after that we did increasing pull ups ever minute on the minute for the remaining 11 minutes.
Ouch… When you just couldn’t do another pull up, crunches were the drill. So not only is my upper back/arms aching, my tummy is a bit stiff too.
Soooo pumpkin blender waffles to the rescue!
Do you ever feel just completely wiped out and despite your best of intentions to get up and workout..and your body is demanding rest? That happened this morning to me.
We were up and down last night with Pearl (our cat) because she is a rowdy brat sometimes, trying to instill discipline at 3am is not fun! That combined with the body aches and a long work day, I was not getting up.
Hopefully I can find a way to fit in a run this afternoon/evening. 🙂
Oh, and I almost forgot… I hope you make this recipe for Pumpkin Blender Waffles for breakfast this weekend! I was inspired by Allison’s blender pancakes, and when making waffles this weekend, I was like ehhh, I’ll thow all these ingredients into the Vitamix and see what happens!
Amazing, it blends perfectly and my favorite part is they pour soooo well and less mess to clean up! Thanks for the tip Allison!
If you make these Pumpkin Blender Waffles or any other recipe on my site please take a picture and share with me on social using #loveandzest. Thanks for the love!

Love love love that you can throw everything into the blender! I actually don’t have a waffle maker so I’m thinking I may just turn it into a pancake? The texture will be off but I bet it will still taste good ;). Tim has been my personal trainer as of late and I’ve def been feeling the burn, the body ache…it’s a pretty awesome feeling hehe. I’d love to go for a run with you too!
Kristina LaRue says
YES!! Please let me know if it works with pancakes 🙂 Keep up the burn Min… let’s run together sometime/ next trip!

Kristina LaRue says
LOL! I’ve cooked grilled cheese in the waffle iron too.
