Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

½ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

2 large eggs

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Whipped cream (for serving)

Maple syrup (for serving)

Optional: chopped nuts or granola for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Waffle Batter:

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In another bowl, combine the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; a few lumps are okay.

      Prepare the Apples:

        In a medium bowl, toss the thinly sliced apples with the brown sugar and vanilla extract until well coated. This will enhance their sweetness and add an inviting flavor.

          Preheat the Waffle Iron:

            Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Coat the iron with a light spray of cooking oil to prevent sticking.

              Cook the Waffles:

                Pour the waffle batter into the preheated waffle iron, using enough to cover the surface. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. (Cooking time will vary depending on your waffle iron, usually about 4-5 minutes.)

                  Assemble the Sandwiches:

                    Once the waffles are cooked, remove them from the waffle iron and let them cool slightly. On one waffle, layer a generous portion of the caramelized apples. Top with another waffle to create a sandwich.

                      Serve:

                        Place the waffle sandwich on a plate, drizzle with warm maple syrup, and top with whipped cream. For added texture and flavor, sprinkle with chopped nuts or granola, if desired.

                          Enjoy!

                            Serve immediately while the waffle is warm, and indulge in the deliciously sweet and spiced flavors of your Cinnamon Apple Waffle Sandwich!
