Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs, then add the almond milk, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; the batter will be slightly lumpy, but avoid overmixing.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or oil.
Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron (follow the specific guide for your waffle maker). Spread evenly if needed.
Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, approximately 4-6 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron with a fork or tongs and transfer them to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve immediately with your choice of sugar-free toppings, such as fresh fruit, unsweetened yogurt, or a drizzle of nut butter.
