Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¼ cups milk
  • ½ cup MUSSELMAN’S® Apple Butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
  • non-stick cooking spray for the griddle

For the cinnamon syrup

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup water, cold
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Step 1
    Preheat your waffle iron. (See your waffle iron's instruction manual for guidance on settings).

  2. Step 2
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  3. Step 3
    In another bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the milk, apple butter, eggs, and vegetable oil. Pour the liquid mixture into the dry mixture and stir to combine.

  4. Step 4
    Spray the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray and spoon the batter onto the heated griddle. Close and cook according to waffle iron instructions.

  5. Step 5
    To make the cinnnamon syrup, add the brown sugar and cinnamon to a small saucepan. In a liquid measuring cup, whisk the cornstarch into the cold water. Pour into the pan with the brown sugar and cinnamon and bring to simmer over medium heat. Stir and continue cooking until the brown sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla.

  6. Step 6
    Serve the apple butter waffles with cinnamon syrup (and whipped cream).

What others are saying about this recipe

    These are a solid 4 stars for my family. I made as directed including the cinnamon syrup. I have a smaller waffle iron, so I ended up with 10 waffles. The waffles themselves were fluffy and cooked completely in 6 minutes. The apple butter and cinnamon flavor was subtle and paired nicely with the syrup. However, eaten plain, you could taste the baking powder. So in the future I would both decrease the baking powder and increase the cinnamon. The syrup while delicious on the waffles, taste like what it is: brown sugar and cinnamon. If you want a more complex flavor, I’d go for maple syrup and increase the amount of cinnamon in the actual waffle.
