Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 ¾ cups milk (or milk alternative)
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- ½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 4 medium apples (peeled and diced, preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ cup brown sugar (adjust based on sweetness preference)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and a pinch of salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and eggs until well blended.
- Gradually stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined; lumpy batter is acceptable.
- Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with nonstick spray. Pour batter onto the iron to cover most of its surface and cook until golden brown, about five minutes.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and a splash of water.
- Cook while stirring occasionally until apples are soft but retain some bite, about ten minutes.
- Stack cooked waffles on plates and top generously with warm spiced apple compote.
- Serve immediately for the best experience.
