Description
A recipe for making apple fritter flavored batter cooked in a waffle iron to create donut-like treats.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup finely diced apple (peeled)
- Vegetable oil spray
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, melted butter, and granulated sugar until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the diced apple.
- Preheat your waffle iron and lightly spray with vegetable oil spray.
- Pour batter onto the hot waffle iron, using enough to cover the surface without overflowing.
- Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the waffle and place it on a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter.
- While the waffles cook, prepare the glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add more milk, one teaspoon at a time, if the glaze is too thick.
- Drizzle the warm waffle donuts with the glaze before serving.
Notes
- Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best texture.
- You can substitute apple cider for the milk in the batter for a stronger apple flavor.
