Equipment

Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 0.25 tsp nutmeg
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 count egg
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 count apple, shredded
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp milk
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 count cinnamon sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron.
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cornstarch. Tip: Make sure to whisk the dry ingredients well to avoid any clumps.
- Whisk in the egg, milk, and oil until smooth. Tip: You want a lump-free batter for the best texture.
- Gently fold in the shredded apples. Tip: This adds moisture and flavor to your waffle donuts.
- Spray the preheated waffle iron with nonstick spray to ensure easy release.
- Spoon the batter onto the waffle iron and cook for 3-5 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Tip: Cooking time may vary depending on your waffle iron.
- Transfer the waffle donuts to a wire rack to cool. Tip: Cooling on a rack prevents sogginess.
- In a separate bowl, mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make the glaze. Tip: Adjust the milk for your desired glaze thickness.
- Dip each waffle donut into the glaze, ensuring it's fully coated. Tip: A fork can help with this process for less mess.
- Let excess glaze drip off, then return the waffle donuts to the wire rack. Tip: This will help set the glaze properly.
- Optionally, sprinkle waffle donuts with cinnamon sugar for extra sweetness.
- Allow the glaze to set before serving. Tip: Enjoy warm for the best flavor!
Notes
