- Look for fresh, organic apples to make the apple cider for the recipe.
- For the oil, choose a neutral-flavored oil such as vegetable or canola.
- Substitute almond milk for the apple cider and club soda for a lighter, vegan-friendly version. The almond milk will provide the same sweetness as the apple cider and the club soda will provide the same leavening as the baking powder. This substitution also makes the recipe dairy-free.
- Substitute coconut oil for the vegetable oil for a more flavorful version. The coconut oil will add a subtle sweetness and richness to the waffles.
Banana Cider Waffles Replace the apple cider with 1 cup of mashed banana and 1/4 cup of milk.
Maple-Glazed Bacon: Maple-glazed bacon is the perfect accompaniment to Dee's Apple Cider Waffles. The salty and sweet combination of bacon and maple syrup is the perfect way to add a savory element to the sweet waffles, and the crunchy texture of the bacon is a great contrast to the soft waffles.
Caramelized Apples: Caramelized apples are the perfect side dish to serve with Dee's Apple Cider Waffles. The sweet and tart flavor of the apples pairs perfectly with the maple-glazed bacon, and the caramelized sugar adds a delightful crunch that complements the soft waffles. The apples also add a healthy element to the meal, which makes it a great option for breakfast or brunch.
