Very Good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

However, I only used 1/2 tsp of ginger to adjust for my taste. Thanks Rachel, it was great!

Makes great cake too!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I was drawn to this particular recipe because it includes pumpkin, which I adore, but I didn't want waffles. I wanted cake. ... So I used the recipe as written, except I substituted whole wheat flour for white, and just dumped it all in a cake pan. It's perfect! Lightly sweet, moist and dense, with a gingery bite. I recommend it to those who like gingerbread that doesn't have too intense a molasses flavor.Read more

Great Waffles!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We really enjoyed these! I used some of the extra pumpkin and mixed it with real maple syrup, added a little cinnamon and... heated it up in a saucepan. It was the perfect topping and a great way to use up some of your extra pumpkin puree. I also used half whole wheat flour and half regular. Great, tasty, healthy, waffles!Read more

Love these!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I found this recipe by chance and saw that it called for molasses and had some to use up. I made them for my granddaughter... and she loves them, she didn't even put syrup on them. The only change I made was used 1/2 cup of unsweetened applesauce for the 1/2 cup butter and they were perfect. I froze the leftovers, so we can enjoy them another day.Read more

Good, but not great
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I made these for my family today and everybody thought they were just ok. I didn't change the recipe at all and they were a... little bit bland. I thought they needed to be a bit more sweet and they didn't have as strong of a gingerbread flavor as I would have liked. The recipe does make a bunch, but if you don't make one a half times the recipe, you end up having leftover pumpkin. Read more
