I've a specific use case, where once an If-this-then-that trigger happens, I want an action to occur, but I do not want that action to happen for at least 30 minutes.
When a WeMo switch is switched on, send a "SwitchOff" action 30 minutes later, to ensure the switch isn't on for more than 30 – 45 minutes at a time
Is there anyway to do this?

Yes there is an (unofficial) way. I developed a tool for this. You can consult this post: https://grapeot.me/adding-a-delay-to-ifttt-recipes.html
Example usage:
