Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1.75 cups whole milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup grated apple (peeled, about 1 large apple)
- 1 as needed for waffle iron cooking spray or melted butter
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold the grated apple into the batter, distributing it evenly.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a bit of melted butter.
Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron (this amount will vary depending on your waffle iron, typically about 1/2 to 3/4 cup). Spread the batter slightly if needed.
Close the lid and cook according to the waffle iron's instructions, usually about 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter, regreasing the waffle iron as needed.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or additional grated apple.
