Oatmeal Waffles With Allspiced Apple Butter Recipes

CINNAMON OATMEAL WAFFLES

Steps:

• Melt butter and set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, measure oats, baking powder, salt and cinnamon into the blender. Process on high until the mixture resembles flour, about one minute.
• Add 1 cup water, eggs and optional sweeteners and blend on high* into a batter, about one minute.
• Add the butter and again, blend on high *for about one minute.
• Allow the batter to sit for 5 minutes and preheat the waffle iron according to manufacturer directions.
• Stir the batter well. At this point the batter should be thin enough to *just* run off the spatula, but no thinner. If it doesn't, add 1/4 cup water and re-blend.
• Pour the desired amount of batter** into the waffle iron. The batter will not spread on its own, so use a spatula to spread it all the way to the edges. Cook the waffle as desired, or according to manufacturer directions.
• Repeat with the remaining batter, stirring well before pouring onto the waffle iron.

OATMEAL WAFFLES

Steps:

• Start with preparing and measuring all the ingredients. I like to use measuring cups.
• Take the blender and add all ingredients. Note: add wet ingredients first for easier blending.
• Mix everything at high speed until you get a smooth texture.
• Taste the batter and add additional sweetener if you think the mixture is not sweet enough.
• Let the batter rest for a few minutes.
• Turn on the waffle maker and let it heat until it's hot (the green light must be on).
• Coat waffle plates with cooking spray or melted coconut oil using the brush.
• Pour the batter onto the hot waffle plates, close the lid and allow the waffles to cook. Depending on your waffle maker it will take between 8-10 minutes per batch.
• Once baked, remove waffles from the waffle maker and place them on a cooling rack. Fresh baked waffles will be soft when you take them out of the waffle maker but they will harden as they cool on the rack.
• Repeating the process with the rest of the batter. Make sure to grease the waffle plates before adding the batter to prevent sticking.
• Transfer cooled waffles to a plate.
• Add toppings (optional): I used banana, blueberries, and maple syrup. Be creative here and add toppings you like.
• Serve and enjoy!

ALLSPICED APPLE BUTTER

Steps:

• Place the apples in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over low heat. Cook, uncovered, for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add the brown sugar and spices; continue cooking over low heat, stirring occasionally, until very thick, about 30 minutes more. To test for doneness, place a spoonful of the mixture on a white plate and let sit for 20 seconds. If a ring of liquid forms around the apples, there is still too much liquid in the mixture. Continue cooking and testing until no ring forms.

APPLE BUTTER

Steps:

• Cook the apples in the cider, stirring continuously for nearly 8 hours. In the last hour or so, add the sugar. Stir in the flavoring. Once butter is thick enough to stick to an upside down saucer, the butter is done and ready to be canned.

CROCK POT APPLE BUTTER RECIPE

Steps:

• Peel and cut apples into small chips. Place all ingredients in the crock pot and stir. Cover and cook on low overnight (eight to ten hours). Remove cover, stir and taste. Add more spices or sugar if desired. Continue cooking for a few more hours, uncovered, until some of the liquid has evaporated and butter has cooked down a bit. Pour into jars and refrigerate. Serve over hot biscuits, toast, scones or eat it out of the jar.
