Ingredients
  

  • 1 apple, seeds removed & finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon sugar, divided
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • waffle batter for 12-14 waffles
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract optional

Instructions
 

  • Slice the apple in quarters & remove the seeds (but not the skin!).  Finely dice.  
    Add the apple to the melted butter in a small saucepan.  Sprinkle with one tablespoon of cinnamon sugar.  Simmer on low for about 10 - 15 minutes, stirring often.  Watch the apples to make sure they get an even coating.  Let the sauce reduce down.  
    Set aside to cool. 
    Make the waffle batter.  If using a mix, add 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract.  If using a scratch recipe and it doesn't call for vanilla extract, add it. 
    Add the remaining tablespoon of cinnamon sugar to the waffle mix.  
    Gently fold in the apple mixture.  
    Add batter to waffle maker according to waffle maker instructions & bake.
    Serve hot with butter & maple syrup or the toppings of your choice.
