Steemians of the earth! Apple Pie for breakfast? YAAAAS.
Lifehack: If you put anything on a waffle it counts as a breakfast food. Cake, Bacon, Half a Turkey- go crazy girl, we got you!
For a more muted version of an apple pie you won't feel as guilty about, but that still packs a hectic punch- try this ish. It's good. I know, I had to eat all of it after I was done taking pictures.
Here's the 411
Apple Pie Mix:
- 2 Grannysmith apples, peel one and slice thinly
- 1/2 Cup Currant and raisin mix (optional)
- 1 Tbsp Butter
- 1 Tsp Corn Starch
- 1/2 Cup Heavy Cream
*1/2 Cup Brown Sugar - 1 Tbsp Cinnamon
- 1 Tsp Ground Ginger
- 1/2 Tsp White Pepper
- 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
- Juice of 1 Orange
- 1/2 Tsp Salt
Method:
- Peel 1 Apple. Slice it with the other one (you can peel both, but I like the texture of a little skin...that sounds wrong. You know what? Peel both.)
- In a small saucepan, add everything but the orange juice and bring to a simmer. Stir intermittently until thickened and caramel-y.
- Squeeze in orange juice and let it cool a little bit before serving. Hot caramel will burn your face. Take my word for it.
Waffles!:
- 2 cups Cake or All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 3 tablespoons Natural Brown Sugar
- 3 Eggs, separated
- 1 Cup Whole/Full Cream milk
- 1/2 cup Buttermilk
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Extra Butter to grease Waffle Iron
Method:
- Sift flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl.
- Melt butter and stir into separate bowl with milk, buttermilk, egg yolks and vanilla.
- Add wet mix to the flour mix and whisk to remove any lumps.
- Whip egg whites and stir half into the batter to loosen, before carefully folding in the rest.
- Drop batter a tablespoon at a time into each 'wedge' in the iron to make little waffles, or 2 heaping teaspoons per wedge to make full-sized waffles. Cook until brown and crisp.
Whipped Cream
*150 ml Cream
Method:
- Whip it. Whip it real good.
To Assemble:
- Stack up some waffles, top 'em with generous spoonfuls of apple pie filling. Sprinkle some extra cinnamon sugar on that is if you feel so inclined. Crown that glory with whipped cream.
