Description
Apple Fritter Waffle Donuts are a delightful twist on traditional donuts, combining the flavors of apple fritters and waffles for a unique and tasty treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced apples (about 2 medium apples)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar for glaze
- 2 tablespoons milk for glaze
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract for glaze
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed in the batter.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray. Pour enough batter into the waffle iron to cover the surface (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron). Close the lid and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
- While the waffles are cooking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
- Once the waffles are done, remove them from the waffle iron and drizzle with the glaze while they are still warm.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious apple fritter waffle donuts!
Notes
- These donuts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a day.
- Feel free to add nuts or raisins to the batter for an extra flavor boost.
- Try experimenting with different types of apples for varied taste.
