Ingredients (for 6 servings)
- 100 g soft butter
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2 eggs (size M)
- 200 g wheat flour (type 405)
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 150 ml milk
- 2 apples (e.g. Elstar, approx. 250 g)

preparation
1. Prepare the dough:
Beat the softened butter with vanilla sugar and salt until light and creamy. Beat in the eggs one at a time until fluffy.
2. Mix dry ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon and fold into the butter and egg mixture. Then stir in the milk until a smooth batter forms.
3. Prepare apples:
Wash the apples, peel if necessary, and coarsely grate them. Carefully fold the grated apples into the batter.
4. Bake waffles:
Preheat the waffle iron and lightly grease it with butter if desired. Pour about 3 tablespoons of batter into the waffle iron for each waffle and bake until golden brown. Let the finished waffles cool briefly on a wire rack.

- Sweet toppings: These waffles taste wonderful with powdered sugar, honey, or a dollop of jam. A scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream also go perfectly with them.
- Spices vary: For an even spicier taste, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the dough.
- Autumnal note: For a more intense autumn flavor, you can stir chopped walnuts or some raisins into the dough.
