Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 medium Fresh pear, peeled and grated
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, salt, and granulated sugar. Whisk together to combine.
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the milk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Gently fold the grated pear into the batter until evenly distributed.
Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray.
Spoon the batter onto the waffle iron (use the recommended amount for your waffle maker) and close the lid.
Cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, typically around 4–6 minutes depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffles and keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve the Ginger Pear Waffles immediately with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or additional fresh pear slices.
