  • FOR THE WAFFLE BATTER:
  • 2-½ cups Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Sea Salt
  • ½ cups Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 3 Tablespoons Honey
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 2 cups Milk
  • ¼ cups Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract

  • FOR THE TOPPING:
  • 8 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 4 whole Medium-sized Red Apples, Each Cut Into 16 Wedges
  • ⅔ cups Sucanat (or Brown Sugar)
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • ⅔ cups Chopped Walnuts
  • Pure Maple Syrup, Warmed, To Serve
  • Whipped Topping, To Serve

Preparation

To make the waffles, combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl; set aside. In another bowl whisk together peanut butter, honey, eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla until well blended. Pour wet ingredients into flour mixture and stir until combined.

Heat a waffle maker and spray with nonstick coating. Pour 1/3 cup of batter per serving (may vary depending on the size of waffle maker). Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until golden brown.

Topping:
In a large skillet, heat the butter. Once melted, add apple slices. Cook on medium heat for 5 minutes, turning often. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over apples; stir to coat well. Cook an additional 5–7 minutes, or until fork-tender. Stir in walnuts the last few minutes of cooking.

Serve apple mixture over waffles and top with warm maple syrup and a dollop of whipped topping.
