Calories 252kcal
Ingredients
3/4cupfresh apples, peeled and finely diced + extra for garnish
1-2tbsppure maple syrup, depending on preferred level of sweetness, or save the extra 1 tbsp to pour on top of the finished pancakes
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients.
In another larger mixing bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients (leave the fresh apples out until the end).
In small batches, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and mix until fully combined, being careful not to over-mix.
Carefully fold in the finely-chopped apple.
Let the batter sit for 5 minutes as you heat your waffle iron to the desired setting (if you like your waffles crispy, set it to the darker setting).
Once the waffle iron is preheated, spray it with non-stick cooking spray on both sides (use coconut oil spray).
Pour in the correct amount of batter, as indicated by your waffle iron, to the center and close/flip, allowing the batter to spread.
If you are not planning on eating the waffles right away, be sure to cool them on a cooking rack so that the moisture does not get to them and they stay crispy.
Top with some vegan butter, maple syrup, and/or any extra chopped apples.
Notes
Freeze leftover made waffles in a zip-lock bag and simply toast in the toaster oven to re-heat.
