In collaboration with yoomoo.
Anyone else excited that pumpkin season has arrived? I’ve been on a mass pinning spree looking for ideas on how to carve our pumpkins this year. We have yet to go to pick them, but I’m hoping to pop to the local farm shop to bring some home. It’s become a tradition for us, but only since having Aiden. It’s funny how children can change things like that, isn’t it?
While you’re carving your pumpkins you’re going to need to keep your energy levels up. It’s such hard work! If you’ve got some pumpkin puree in the cupboards or you’re looking for recipes for Halloween to use up your pumpkin innards, these pumpkin chocolate fro-yo sandwiches are the perfect spooky treat.
Pumpkin filled waffles cooked with chocolate chips and sandwiched together with vanilla frozen yoghurt.
- 3 eggs
- 125 g melted butter
- 480 ml almond milk or milk of your choice
- 240 g self-raising flour
- 75 g milk or dark chocolate chips
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp pumpkin puree
-
Set up your waffle maker as per the manufacturer's instructions (I used the classic waffle setting).
-
Beat together the eggs, milk, melted butter, pumpkin puree, chocolate chips, and cinnamon until well combined and then pour into the flour in a large bowl. Mix together until completely smooth and free from lumps.
-
When the waffle machine is ready, pour the batter into the waffle maker and cook.
-
Let the waffles cool down before spreading the yoomoo Vanilla frozen yogurt on top and making a sandwich with a second waffle.
This year, I’ve been collaborating with yoomoo as part of their yootime campaign, which inspires women to be their best self in all aspects of life. As regular readers will know, this is a topic that is close to my heart. I’m passionate about inspiring women to connect with their truth, showing up in their life as the fabulous version of themselves and no one else. So I’m still so excited to be a part of this campaign and bringing you these recipes.
Not going to lie, these are messy! But where there is mess there is fun and these fro-yo sandwiches are definitely that. They would be perfect at any pumpkin carving or Halloween parties that you have planned or as mentioned above great for using up all that pumpkin flesh too. The waffles freeze really well, so with a batch ready made and some Vanilla yoomoo in the freezer dessert is easily made in seconds.
Got a thing for waffles?
How about these Blueberry Cinnamon Ricotta Waffles for a weekend brunch.

I think it’s great to use Pumpkin in other ways, especially for the ‘waste’.
This is a recipe that is definitely up my street.
Thanks Olivia! There’s certainly a lot of pumpkin waste this time of year so it’s nice to use it up.
These look lovey, I have never cooked anything with pumpkin before which is such a shame really,, maybe this is the recipe to tempt me x
I hope it does, it’s lovely to bake with.
really need to get a waffle maker, as the types you can make is very versatile. Love all things pumpkin!
I love my waffle maker, definitely a kitchen must have.
These look incredible and such a super change from the usual Halloween/autumn type recipes. On my to do list for the weekend!x
Yay! Do let me know how you get on.
Such a delicious recipe! I’ve never thought about making pumpkin before but it looks so tasty!
Thank you!
I love using up the waste bits and am a huge fan of waffles, so this recipe idea is right up my street!
Yay! Do let me know if you try it.
I love waffles as sandwiches as well….you can put almost anything in-between and it will taste so good!!
Yes! The vanilla fro-yo works so well.
Oh I bet the combination of chocolate chips and pumpkin makes these taste so nice x
They really are scrummy!
Wow this looks like an interesting recipe, especially as after Halloween its good to not waste a good pumpkin. The waffles look yummy, wish I had a waffle maker too.
So much pumpkin goes to waste so it’s nice to find other ways to use it up.
You are a genius – I hate seeing so much pumpkin flesh going to waste every year but there is really only so much soup I could make previously! Next week could be the week to get the waffle machine back out!
Ha! Thank you! It’s nice to find new ways to use it.
I haven’t made anything with pumpkin before. Maybe it’s time to give it a try. I think I have a waffle maker somewhere.
It’s so easy to cook and bake with.
I am a big fan of this frozen yoghurt, I love the waffle sandwich you have made with it. IT LOOKS DELICIOUS.
Thank you!
These yoo moo tasty treats look lush. I would love to try these x
Thank you! ?
Oh my word those look SO good! Love the pumpkin/chocolate/yoghurt combination, my kids would go wild for these! Haven’t tried YooMoo before but I love frozen yoghurt so will look out for it.
Thanks Kate. It’s a combo that works really well. They’re great for kids!
I love waffles and these look delicious – perfect for a lovely dessert or treat breakfast!
Thank you, Ali.
OMG what an incredible combo for the season! I would love to see if this would work with a dairy free icecream xxx
It definitely would! ?
oh my gosh this looks so good! I’ve never tried waffles as sandwiches!! xx
So easy and a little bit different from the bread variety.
The weird thing is that we religiously carve our pumpkins every year – for the kids as you say, but we never eat anything pumpkin-y. I’m not sure I could even tell you what pumpkin tastes like! These waffles look lovely though. Perhaps this year will be the year we eat as well as carve!
It’s funny isn’t it. I love pumpkin and squashes. There’s lots of great ways to use them, they’re great in curries.
What a cook idea. I would never have thought of that and I am loving the flavours too! Shared!
Thanks Jac!
omg wow i so need to give this a try , i love coming over here it always inspires me to eat more and eat differently
Thanks Lisa. That means I’m doing my job right. ?
These look scrummy – the perfect Halloween Treat!
Thanks Kara.
Yummmy! That waffle looks absolutely delicious. My kids gonna love this recipe.
Thank you. Kids do love them.
