Spiced Pumpkin Waffles

I have been told that the kids are tired of pumpkin this and pumpkin that with apples coming a close second...I guess it is time for Gingerbread, fudge and other flavors. I snuck these waffles in this past weekend and they are wonderful! I am glad I tried them and they will be on top of my list next fall.
