Tasty Tuesday

I found this awesome recipe on www.recipegirl.com. We decided to try them on Sunday night and loved them! I think this will be our new fall tradition. Yummy!
Spiced Apple Waffles

Wonderful fall breakfast treat...




Spiced Apple Waffles

3 large eggs

¾ cup buttermilk, warmed

¾ cup milk, warmed

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 medium Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and grated

1½ cups flour

1½ tsp pumpkin pie spice

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

½ cup granulated sugar

1 cup toasted pecans (completely optional)
powdered sugar to sift on top


1
Preheat waffle iron. In large bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, milk and butter. Stir in apple. In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, spice, baking soda and salt. Add flour mixture to egg mixture; whisk until smooth (some small lumps are ok).

2
Sprinkle 2 T. pecans (if using) onto waffle iron. Pour about 2/3 cup batter onto surface. Cook waffles until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Keep warm in 200°F. oven while cooking the remaining waffles.

3
Serve with warmed maple syrup and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

Servings: 4 to 6

Cooking Tips:
*Extra waffles freeze nicely. Just warm them up another day by popping them in the toaster.
