- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 tbsp melted butter
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup diced apples
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron to ensure it’s hot and ready for cooking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir these together to distribute the ingredients evenly.
- Whisk Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and melted butter until the mixture is smooth and consistent.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
- Fold in Apples and Pecans: Gently fold the diced apples and chopped pecans into the batter to evenly distribute the flavorful add-ins.

- Serve Warm: Serve the waffles immediately while warm with maple syrup or your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Ensure your waffle iron is well-preheated for crispy waffles.
- Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense waffles.
- Substitute apples with pears for a different fruit twist.
- Use toasted pecans for extra crunch and flavor.
- Maple syrup complements these waffles perfectly, but honey or fruit compote works as great alternatives.
