Crisp on the outside – fluffy on the inside! These perfect vegan Apple Pie Waffles are topped with warm apple chunks and drizzled with maple syrup.
If you love apples and apple pie – you’ll love these Apple Pie flavored Waffles! There’s cinnamon and ginger powder in the waffles and the whole stack of deliciousness is topped with a warm apple chunks cooked in cinnamon. And of course: Maple Syrup. Lots of maple syrup!
These waffles are crisp on the outside, while being soft on the inside. The most important thing to remember is spraying the waffle iron with oil after every batch. I’ve bought a waffle iron and it said non-stick on the package and I trusted it. I shouldn’t have. It was a mess! The poor waffles got torn apart. Not a pretty view. Non-stick baking spray is a waffles best friend :)
The recipe is enough for 4 belgian style waffles. If you use another waffle iron – you might end up with more or less waffles.
Vegan Apple Pie Waffles
Ingredients
Ingredients for the Apple Sauce
- 1 apple (sweet kind), peeled and cut in chunks
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon powder
Ingredients for the Waffles
- 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon vegan white sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil liquid
- 3/4 cup plant-based milk e.g. unsweetened rice milk
- nonstick cooking spray for the waffle iron
- maple syrup for drizzling on top
Instructions
- For the apple sauce, put all the ingredients in a pot, bring it to a boil and let it simmer with the lid on for about 20 minutes. Then take the lid off and let it simmer for another 5-10 minutes. Let it thicken up a bit.
- Combine the flour, cinnamon and ginger powder, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the coconut oil and rice milk and whisk until combined. It should be a thick, sticky batter.
- Heat the waffle iron and spray it generously with the oil, so that the waffles don’t stick to the iron later and add about 1/4 of the waffle batter for each waffle and let it cook in the iron until slightly brown on the edges.
- Once you’ve made all the waffles, stack them up, spread the warm apple sauce on top, drizzle with more maple syrup and enjoy!
