Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 large eggs

1 3/4 cups milk

1/2 cup melted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 medium apples, peeled and diced

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 cup brown sugar

Whipped cream (for serving)

Caramel sauce (for drizzling)

Optional: chopped pecans or walnuts (for added crunch)

Instructions
 

Make the Waffle Batter: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are some lumps.

    Prepare the Apple Filling: In a separate bowl, toss the diced apples with cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and brown sugar. Set aside to let the flavors meld.

      Preheat Waffle Maker: Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

        Cook the Waffles: Pour a ladle of waffle batter into the preheated waffle maker, spreading it slightly. Add a generous spoonful of the apple filling on top of the batter, then pour additional batter over the apples, just enough to cover them. Close the waffle maker and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy (about 4-5 minutes). Repeat until all batter and filling are used.

          Assemble the Sandwiches: Allow the waffles to cool slightly. Place one waffle on a plate, add a dollop of whipped cream, top with another waffle, and drizzle with caramel sauce. You can sprinkle some chopped nuts for extra texture if desired.

            Serve: Cut the sandwich in half for easier handling or serve whole. Enjoy warm!
