These apple cider doughnut waffles are a delightful twist on traditional waffles, infused with the warm flavors of apple cider and cozy spices like cinnamon and apple pie spice.

Ingredients

Scale

Doughnut Waffles:

  • 1 1/2 cups apple cider (*reduced to 1 cup – see note)
  • 1 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour (all-purpose works as well)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon apple pie spice
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil

Instructions

  1. Reduce Apple Cider: Place apple cider in a saucepan over low heat and allow to simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes or until it has reduced to 1 cup*
  2. Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat waffle iron
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and apple pie spice in a medium mixing bowl.
  4. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate, smaller mixing bowl, whisk together egg, oil, and cider.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined (with no remaining flour pockets).
  6. Cook Waffles: Place about 1/3 of the batter in each section of the waffle iron then cook.
  7. Serve: Remove and allow to cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes, then enjoy!

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can top the waffles with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of maple syrup.
  • Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
