Apple Cinnamon Waffles
"I just purchased a new waffle iron and am on a search for awesome waffle recipes. This is one I found on Mr.Breakfast.com. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family did. Any left over waffles would freeze well (OAMC).
NOTE: You can also try adding different fruits and spices instead of apple and cinnamon. I added a couple fistfuls of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the batter and the grandkids flipped over them."

I made these yesterday and they are good. I made a couple of changes: I used half whole wheat flour and half white flour to make them more healthy. I also grated the apple, and that seemed to work great. I needed only a tiny bit more liquid to make up for the fact that I used whole wheat flour. The waffles smelled divine while they were cooking, and tasted great when they were done: not terribly sweet, but with a great apple-cinnamon flavor. I also made homemade applesauce to put on the waffles as a special treat. The kids gobbled them! Thanks for the recipe, Happy Hippie! -
I thought these were pretty good. I decided to use whole wheat flour and applesauce in place of the oil for healthier waffles. I also chopped the apples finely instead of thinly slicing them so that they were more evenly distributed. One thing I did find was that I had to add at least 1/2 c more milk because my batter was so thick. The flavor was good and my 3 kids gobbled them up AND I have enough for tomorrow morning. I also made some cinnamon apples for a topping; thinly sliced one peeled apple, covered with water, sprinkled with cinnamon and 1 tbsp brown sugar. I let that simmer until apples were soft and syrupy. It was a great topping, though some of my kids preferred powdered sugar or maple syrup.

I live in beautiful San Diego where there's never nothin to do. We almost never have days where you can't get outdoors. For fun I love to read, cook, take road trips with my grandson, whom I raise. Take long walks along the beach, bays and lakes. My live in grandson is 12 and the light of my life. I've been teaching him to fish, or should I say I'm exposing him to lake fishing, the people we meet along the way are teaching him while I read and watch. He's dying to go ocean fishing, that one makes me a bit more nervous, but we'll start that soon, probably from piers to start. Nick's only one of my grandchildren though, I have a total of 13, three live in Kansas, the land of Oz. The last time I visited them, it was Christmas time and when I stepped off the plane, the cold air took my breath away and standing there waiting for me in a short-sleeved T-shirt, was my son-in-law. Needless, to say, I spent many days there staying indoors praying for the day I could get back to sunny California -- I never had to endure snow the whole time, thank God! Twenty degrees daily was way out of my comfort zone by a very large margin. There truly is no place like home. I have 8 other grandchildren that are fortunate enought to live in San Diego too. We spend weekends doing things together such as taking in the zoo, wild animal park, Sea World, Knotts Soak City water park (summer), museums, fishing, picknicking and just hanging out. They all love to help grandma cook in the kitchen. I have many cookbooks and can read them like I'd read a novel. My passions are my family, my two boston terriers, Tuffy and Oreo, and gardening, cooking and reading -- oh yeah, I'm totally addicted to Zaar. I don't really have many pet peeves, but a biggie is mean, obnoxious people and those who think they know it all, and liars, I can pick out a deceitful person it an instant. If you can't trust someone, then nothings worth salvaging in the relationship. I hate those who disrespect the environment (no I'm not a tree hugger) but I do hate to see people litter and fail to do simple things such as picking up after themselves in the outdoors such as parks and beaches, and how easy is it to recycle? It's really not too difficult to make an impact on the environment if everybody takes responsibility for their "trash."
