Today is Saturday Brunch-Day! As opposed to Sunday Funday. I don't know about y'all, but my Sundays are made especially for sleeping {and sometimes homework}. Saturdays, well, I can deal with waking up at a decent time and actually cooking some nice breakfast. I'm home for the weekend, so I decided to surprise my family with some fancy Apple Pie Waffles for brunch! These are super easy and so delicious. This recipe uses 3 apples and makes 6 waffles, so really you're eating a half an apple per waffle. Basically, this is like a health food. Equivalent to a fruit salad, right?
I've been having so much fun this fall season making desserts WITHOUT pumpkin! I started off with these Sweet Potato Snickerdoodles, followed up with some Browned Butter Pear Muffins, and now here are some Apple Pie Waffles. Yes, I made that Pumpkin White Hot Chocolate, but that's a drink, not a dessert. Important distinction. My little blogger brain is working on a savory pumpkin soup, so come back and check on that soon! Meanwhile, make these waffles and swoon at how unbelievably delicious and easy they are! Chock-full of fresh apple chunks and a sweet spiced kick, they are pure fall perfection when topped with maple syrup and a thick pat of butter. Yum!
