Easy Apple Pie Waffles

Sharing is caring!

You won’t find an easier Apple Pie Waffle recipe! These apple waffles are soft and fluffy with bites of tender apple inside and cinnamon goodness, but made incredibly easy by utilizing canned apple pie filling!

Waffles are definitely a favorite in my family. If you don’t believe me, we have a yorkie terrier named Waffles to prove it. This homemade apple waffles recipe will soon become a family favorite in your house too! Easy apple waffles are packed with perfectly tender, sweet and sour apple flavor we all know and love!

The smell of apple pie waffles in the morning is one you will never want to get rid of! While most mornings are not made for big breakfasts or sit down meals, every once in a while you will find a Saturday morning that is primed and ready to be enjoyed with a crispy and sweet treat. That’s why I love my waffle maker! It is a quick and easy tool to get breakfast on the table without taking up tons of prep and cleanup time.

Fluffy and sweet, the only thing missing is the perfect apple waffle topping! Oh wait, that’s easy! Serve up your waffles with some whipped cream and sprinkle them with cinnamon for another blast of flavor. Or, top with some more of that apple pie filling!

I particularly like to use canned apple pie filling for this recipe because it is packed with all the good apple spices (cinnamon and nutmeg), and can be ready to go at a moment’s notice. No special ingredients or extra trips to the store are necessary! Simple ingredients and simple steps will get you an easy to make breakfast that you can enjoy fresh off the iron or you can freeze and enjoy on the go.

What Do I Need to Make Easy Apple Waffles?

• 1 ½ cup flour
• 1 Tablespoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup of milk
• 1 egg
• 1 cup apple pie filling, I always recommend getting the “more fruit” variety!
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Step by Step Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat waffle iron.

Step 2: In a medium sized bowl stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.

Step 3: In a separate mixing bowl, add 1 cup of apple pie filling. Use the end of a whisk, a mix and chopper or a large fork to mash the apple pie filling until the chunks of apples are smaller than ½ inch.

Step 4: Whisk the milk, egg, and vanilla into the apple pie filling. 

Step 5: Next add the dry ingredients and whisk again, only until all the dry ingredients are completely incorporated. You want to be careful not to overmix because this could make your waffles tough!

Step 6: Pour waffle batter onto greased waffle iron and cook until golden. Serve warm, topped with remaining apple pie filling,  maple syrup, or whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon! Yum!
