- For best results, use a tart apple like Granny Smith for the recipe.
- Make sure to peel the apple before grating it for the batter.
- Substitute almond flour for all-purpose flour - Almond flour is a healthier alternative to all-purpose flour as it is gluten-free and contains more nutrients. It also has a nutty flavor that can enhance the flavor of the waffles.
- Substitute coconut oil for butter - Coconut oil is a healthier alternative to butter as it is lower in saturated fat and contains beneficial fatty acids. It also has a light coconut flavor which will add a delicious twist to the waffles.
Cranberry Apple Waffles Replace the grated apple with grated cranberry and reduce the sugar to 2 teaspoons. Add 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg to the dry ingredients. Increase the melted butter to 6 tablespoons.
Maple Syrup and Whipped Cream: This classic combination is the perfect accompaniment to the Cinnamon Apple Waffles. The sweetness of the maple syrup and the creaminess of the whipped cream will complement the cinnamon and apple flavors perfectly.
