This particular recipe, especially the syrup quickly became a favorite. I know, it’s just breakfast to many people, but first of all we love breakfast for dinner, and second the recipe rocks. I love when a recipe not only turns out just like it’s supposed to, but it also hits sweet, savory, salty, crisp and fluffy all in one bite. That, that my friends is a good recipe. The waffles are seriously delicious and we love that tiny hint of tart from the apples, salty crispness from the bacon and the sweet from the syrup plus pack in a fluffy waffle and I’m drooling as I type this!
Ingredients
Cider Syrup:
1/2 Cup Granulated White Sugar
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
1 Cup Unsweetened Apple Cider
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice, fresh
2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
Waffles:
1 1/2 Cup All Purpose Flour
2 Tablespoons White Sugar
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
3/4 Cup Buttermilk
3/4 Cup Milk
8 Tablespoons Butter, melted
3 Large Eggs
1 Medium Apple, Peeled, cored, and grated
1 lb of Bacon, cooked and crumbled
Instructions:
For the Syrup:
To make the syrup, place the corn starch, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice in a medium sauce pan. Whisk in the cider and lemon juice. Turn the heat to medium and bring to a boil, stirring often. Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer until the mixture begins to thicken. Remove the pan from the heat and add the butter, whisking to combine. Set aside.
For the Waffles:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, milk, butter and eggs. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir to combine without over mixing. Stir in the apple and bacon.
Heat a waffle iron according to manufacturers instructions and spray with non-stick spray. Scoop the waffle mixture into the waffle iron and close the lid, cooking per instructions. Serve with warm apple cider syrup.
