I love to play around with my waffle recipe as the seasons begin to change. It is one of the perfect dishes to incorporate new tastes and flavors. One thing that immediately comes to mind beginning in September through early spring is apple cider. We go through more apple cider during those months than we do any other drink, besides coffee and water, of course. We just can’t get enough of it – cold straight out of the refrigerator or warmed in a mug late in the afternoon – it is always welcome. So the other morning, I decided to forgo my normal waffle recipe and make an Apple Cider Waffle recipe instead.
Oh my stars were they perfection on a plate and just right for this time of year.
These waffles fall into the category of not too much, as in they are not an ‘in-your-face’ kind of heavy on the spice sort of recipe.
But, not too little either.
They are juuuuussssst right.
I served them with warm maple syrup, a little bit of butter, and a large glass of apple cider to finish them off.
And finish them off we did.
Here’s my recipe for Apple Cider Waffles. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 egg
- 1 cup apple cider
- Preheat waffle iron and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Whisk all dry ingredients together and add egg and apple cider. Whisk until well-combined.
- Pour into waffle iron and prepare according to waffle iron instructions.
- Remove from waffle iron when baked throughout and serve warm.
Love ya,
Robyn

For some reason, this reminds me of a Apple salad I had this year. One of the best salad I’ve ever eaten.
This one looks good too! My wife is always sneaking in vegetarian dish, so this may be one for the books
Thanks so much, Chris.
Whooooaaaah! These look like the perfect treat for the fall
Thanks, Olivia. They were gone before I knew it.
These look amazing! I want to make these and then snuggle into a blanket on the couch!
These are gorgeous, Robyn! And a great excuse to dust off my waffle maker!
My boys beg for waffles and I don’t know why I don’t make them more often! I can only imagine how good these flavors taste!
This is a lovely recipe!
This is the first waffle recipe I have ever seen without butter and milk in the mix. I am so intrigued that I must absolutely try it!
Can’t wait to make these, we’re having the perfect weather for them! Rainy and cool..we need something to brighten up our day, and these will work perfect!!!! Thanks!
How did you change your basic waffle recipe for the apple cider one??
Oh I want these! And I have all of the ingredients! Yay.
These look absolutely mouth-watering. I LOVE maple syrup and these will be a perfectly delicious excuse:-) Thanks!
I love apple cider. We just had a cold front last weekend and I’ve been brewed apple cider all weekend! Definitely going to give these waffles a try!
I so wish I had a big plate of these in front of me right now!!
These look delicious! I wish I was at home instead of work so I could try this out right now.

I made these for breakfast for dinner. They were delicious and everyone enjoyed them. Megan
Just made these this morning (with whole wheat pastry flour) and LOVED them! I brushed a bit of canola oil on the hot iron, and the waffles came out perfectly crisp on the outside and fluffy & light on the inside. Thanks for a fantastic waffle recipe =).

Hi Robyn
What brand of waffle iron did you use in this recipe.
