Apples contain a natural starch called pectin. Varieties with more pectin (Pink Lady and Honeycrisp) won’t fall apart when stewed or baked – best for sautés, cakes, and pies. Those with less pectin, like Golden Delicious, will break down more when cooked. Use these for applesauce, muffins, and scones.
- 2 Honeycrisp Apples
- 3 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
- 1/2 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 2 Cup Low Fat Buttermilk
- 1/4 Cup Canola Oil
- 3 Large Eggs (Room Temperature)
- 1 3/4 Cups Unbleached Flour
- 1/4 Cup Ground Flaxseed
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar
- 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/4 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1/4 Cup Toasted Pecans (Optional)
- Core and thinly slice the apples.
- Melt butter in 10-inch skillet over a medium heat. Add apples and sauté 8 to 10 minutes until tender. Stir occasionally. Stir in maple syrup and pumpkin pie spice. Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, preheat a greased waffle iron on medium.
- In a blender, purée the buttermilk, oil, eggs, flour, flaxseed, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt until combined. Spoon some batter into waffle iron. Cook 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Reheat apple mixture if desired. Spoon over waffles to serve. Top with toasted pecans if desired.
- Keep waffles warm on a baking sheet in a 225-degree oven.
